Join in the fun for our 2nd Annual Joker's Wild Run For Rescues 5K and 1 Mile Run/Walk benefitting The Humane Society of Harris County.
The course will start and finish in downtown Pine Mountain, GA at 2:00 p.m. and will be run/walked on the completely paved Man O' War Trail. At each Kilometer of the 5K you will receive a playing card and at the finish line you will be given a finish card to be filled out and stapled to your 5 playing cards (Jokers are wild!). Overall and age group awards are based on best poker hands. 5K age group awards are from 10 & under to 70 & over in 5-year age groups. Ribbons to all finishers in the fun run/walk which starts at 3:00 p.m.
We will have a clock running for those who also want to see how their times are on a Fall afternoon in October on a very flat course, but your time will have no bearing on your place of finish - it's all about a fun time!
We'll have plenty of fluids and snacks for the postrace funtivities!
For those of you want to support this great cause but cannot attend the event we have setup a Virtual/Phantom runner category for you to consider. For an additional $7.00 to cover the postage we will mail you your shirt, which we think is one of the best looking out there this year!
