It’s going to be time to put away the snow boots and pull out your running and walking shoes! The 9th Annual Fishcreek Raccoon Run will going virtual this year!! Due to the CDC orders to limit public gatherings, the Fishcreek Raccoon Run will be converting a virtual run. The Raccoon Run promotes the health and wellness of the district’s students and the community as a whole while supporting the students of Fishcreek Elementary.
What does that mean??
First, to keep it simple, all participants are now a part of the 5k or 1 Mile VIRTUAL portion AND participants will have April 12- May 2, 2020 to complete the race at their leisure. Run the entire 5k or 1 Mile in 1 run or break it up into small runs/walks over several days. This is great for families or novice runners.
To post your results, simply come back to our website and go to the results tab. If you opted in for text messages, you can also send your results via text. You will receive instructions via text on race week.
Registration for the event will now close on APRIL 26th at 9am, so please encourage your friends and family to register! When you complete your 5k or 1 Mile run, take a selfie photo and post it at https://www.facebook.com/FishcreekRaccoonRun/ with #fishcreekraccoonrun.
