Forgot a Race For This Weekend

I forgot about this race, I kept trying to remind myself to put it with the list from yesterday, but I forgot. I guess it is only a big deal because the money being raised supports the Muncie Boys & Girls Club and I’m friends with the director.

It is Saturday starting at 10am. Registration opens at 9:30 it is a 5K run/walk and a 1 mile run. Race day registration is $11. It is being held at Ball State’s LaFollette Field. They will have Concannon’s Doughnuts (Mmmm). Contact jlpollack@bsu.edu for more information. I know this is a first year event being produced by Ball State Marketing students. They will have lots of raffle prizes!
