GET NOTHING 5K #017 - Summer In The City (3 of 3)

🏃‍♂️ Race Overview

Get Nothing 5K is BACK with a quick and fun THREE 5K races, all in downtown Jacksonville, and all on a Sunday evening: the Summer In The City Sunday Series! The THIRD series installment will be running two loops on the Southbank Riverwalk, starting at the Friendship Fountain!

🚫 What You Get

• No swag bags: Absolutely nothing to carry home.
• No medals: Enjoy the experience without the clutter.
• No shirts: Escape the burden of unwanted apparel.
• Free entry: GET NOTHING 5K is a FREE TIMED 5K. 🤷‍♂️

🏅 Make It Your Own

Make it whatever YOU want it to be: you can run fast and aim for a PR if you want, but if you "win", you still get NOTHING. Run fast, or run slow - or somewhere in between. Do a tempo run, interval training, use it as a tune-up or shake-out, just get in a few miles for the day, or enjoy a leisurely jog with your running bestie. Meet new friends, catch up with old ones, encourage others along the way, maybe even inspire someone to join the fun next time.

👟 Community Vibes

Running together is always more fun than running alone! 😍

• Walkers welcome: GET NOTHING 5K is a community event meant for everyone, regardless of pace.
• TURTLE volunteer: There will be a designated "TURTLE" whose job is to bring up the rear.
• Encouragement: Cheer each other on while enjoying the atmosphere.
• Social meet-up: No snacks at the finish line? Go grab tacos or ice cream with finishers!

📝 Race Day Details

To participate: register online, check in before the start to get your bib, then wear it on your FRONT. Timing is done manually, and that’s really hard to do if you hide your bib! There are no timing chips - everything is GUN TIME. That means the clock starts when the GO command is given, NOT when you cross the start line. Keep that in mind when comparing official results with your own GPS time, so no complaining later! Depending on where we run, there may or may not be toilets available nearby... so please mind your own "business" before the start.

👋 Final Thoughts

Let's get together to RUN, and to have some FUN - see you at the start line! 🏃 🏃‍♀️

PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN HYDRATION.
