As we get ready for the big event just a few things to remember: 1. Shirt and registration pick up will start at 7:30 at the FRAZE 2. Shirts for people who registered after Oct. 21 will be passed out on a first come first serve basis. 3. Parking is free in and around the FRAZE Overflow Parking at Kettering Fairmont. 4. We will not have a gear check so please allow time to walk back to your car and drop off your shirt if you don't plan to wear it. 5. Keep your smiles on, we have a Photo Booth for us all to have a good time with. 6. Finally, it looks to be a bit chilly Saturday morning, but that won’t stop us from having a good time. With over 350 runners and walkers registered, we almost doubled last year’s 5K. Thanks to everyone for the support and a special thanks to Jen and Andrea are pulling this all together! Can’t wait to see you all! Diana
