WHAT
The Wilmington Surgical Associates Run for the Ta Tas presented by Delaney Radiology
Run for the Ta Tas is a 5K Chaser Race and 1 Mile Fun Run/Walk. But this is not your typical 5K – a Chaser Race is a unique format where women start first, giving them a head start over the men. Men start exactly 2:00 minutes after the women (Hint on the name: Run For the Ta Tas). Whoever crosses the finish line first, male or female, wins the race!
