The Details:

Z Krewe's 0.5K "Race" - That's not a typo. We mean it... POINT FIVE K

Z Krewe's 0.5K was created for folks who are NOT ready to go the extra mile. In fact, they aren't willing to go a mile at all. This is a "Race" for the rest of us! It's a race event for those who would rather binge Netflix all day, drink a beer or 5, and fill up on carbs! Z Krewe's 0.5k'ers are willing to be silly and have a little bit of fun while raising money to help the Galveston County Food Bank's Kidz Pacz Program to feed hungry Kidz during the summer.

The "Race" will incorporate all the typical race elements into a treacherous 1,640-ish ft "racecourse". But we've added in some amusing obstacles for fun and entertainment. No TRAINING or EFFORT is required. This is a umm.. "Race" for all the NON-RUNNERS, Slackers, Un-Runners, Underachievers and Couch Potatoes! It's OK to take your time and not "race" to the finish line. Everyone will get a medal to show off on Monday at the office!

Some Race tips:

• Get to the starting line early: So you can stretch (0.3 miles is nothing to take too lightly)
• Enjoy an adult beverage: At the halfway point (that’s a whopping .1555555 miles in) to stay hydrated
• Celebrate crossing the finish line: And receive your "Finisher's Medal" with a FINISHER'S BEER (ROOT BEER - for the Kiddos)!
