Hey there Kiddos,

Race day in Smyrna is just 3 weeks away and we're so excited with the plans that are coming together for the big day.  I have to say, one of our favorite things ever at the National Youth 5K Series is watching all the smiling faces on the kids crossing that finish line and we hear the kids in Smyrna are pumped up and ready for a fun time!

So a few reminders here to pass along.  Remember that online registration closes on May 7th at midnight.  Registering online not only ensures for a smooth packet pick up process and race day experience, it also guarantees your race shirt premium.  Otherwise shirts are "as supplies last" for in-person registrations.

Also, don't forget about our Team Give Back program designed to help youth sports teams and clubs come together in a fun environment, promote team spirit, and raise some funds for the team.  The process is pretty simple and is outlined below.  Feel free to share with local sports teams, commissioners, and coaches.

As always, we encourage you to learn about the series, our goals and our mission, how to get other locations involved, and how schools can be part of the initiative by visiting: www.nationalyouth5k.com

You can help us spread the word by friending our Facebook Page, sharing with your family and friends, and signing up for our next event with a group of friends.
