Rush 5K and 1 Mile Fun Run

Calling all runners/walkers!


Snellville United Methodist Youth Ministry is hosting its first annual Rush5k run/walk on Saturday, March 29 at 8AM. The event will also include a one-mile Fun Run beginning at 9AM. Registration is available through the church’s website (www.snellvilleumc.org/race), as well as Active.com (an additional 3$ registration fee will be charged http://www.active.com/snellville-ga/running/distance-running-races/rush-5k-and-fun-run-2014?keywords...)

All proceeds will benefit SUMC’s Youth Ministry and their mission trips and retreats. Teenagers and adults are encouraged to sign up for the 5K. Those with small children can register for the 1 mile fun run. Everyone who participates will receive a t-shirt, and prizes will be awarded for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place finishers in each of the different gender/age groups.

If you are looking for a little motivation to help you get started, SUMC’s Witness Through Fitness group runs/jogs/walks at 8am every Saturday at Bay Creek Park. Newcomers are invited to start a journey of exercise with a goal of joining our 5k.

The cost to run in the 5K is $25 per person and the Fun Run is $15 per person.
