Geist Half Marathon & 5K “Race Around the Reservoir”

The Geist Half Marathon Inc. announced a new outreach program designed to inspire local schools or not for profit groups to participate in the inaugural Geist Half Marathon and 5K Run/Walk Presented by Community Health Network on May 17, 2008. Participants must be associated with a school or other not for profit group and have an adult organizer willing to administer the Geist Half Marathon approved fitness program.

To participate, the organizing adult must apply online via the form below. Upon approval by the Geist Half Marathon, participating teams will receive discounted race registration fees, wrist bands, and a “team in training” t-shirt for each child. In addition, each child that participates in either the Geist Half Marathon, 5K Run/Walk, or a new kid’s half marathon program will also receive the official race shirt and finishing medal upon completion.

To offset the costs of the in training t-shirts, discounted race fees, and subsidized race fees for students on the school lunch program, Geist Half Marathon organizers are seeking corporate or individual sponsors of $500 per team. Sponsors have their name or logo on the back of each team in training t-shirt for their team. Sponsor a team >>
