🏃‍♂️ Race Overview

We are six weeks away from our first annual Gold Star Memorial Day Run here in Waterside. A couple of quick notes:

🚩 Route Information

  • Route Type: We will have one route that will be marked with cones and American Flags.
  • Options: I have presented two options. Check them out and we will do a vote on the option most pick.

🙌 Volunteer Opportunities

  • Setup Help: Volunteers needed. Anyone that can help me set up the course would be appreciated.
  • Course Safety: Anyone that would like to have their cars or golf carts helping make sure our runners stay safe and keep intersections clear as they pass would be appreciated as well.
  • National Anthem: If anyone wants to volunteer to sing the National Anthem prior to the race, let me know.

👏 Community Support

  • Cheering: Neighbors not participating. Would love to see y’all line the sidewalks in front of your homes and support our runners.
  • Show Love: Play music, cheer, noisemakers. Show our neighborhood love.
  • Route Participation: Check out the route. If your house is on it, just step outside and cheer. If your home is not, come to the finish line or another spot on the course to watch and cheer on your neighbors.

🇺🇸 Runner Instructions

  • Dress Code: Have fun. Dress in patriotic gear, run with American flags, ruck march, etc.

⏰ Schedule

  • 7:15 AM: Check in begins at Hideaway Gulch Green space.
  • 8:00 AM: Moment of Silence. National Anthem.
  • 8:05 AM: Gold Star Run begins.

🎖️ Event Giveaway

The giveaway. Instead of medals, we are going to do unique pins. At the end of the race, each participant will be given a lanyard (if you haven’t gotten one from the Turkey Trot) and will select an American Flag pin design of their choosing that can be pinned to the lanyard. Every race we do, will have a unique pin. Collect them all and show off your Waterside race swag!
