This weekend is our last race of the season and one of the most exciting! We are so proud of all of your children who lived the HKRS mission to Get Up and Go!
To make it a great final race day, please read the important reminders below.
1. Medals & Trophy Ceremony
Every child that crosses the finish line on the final week will receive a medal!
Our trophy ceremony will immediately follow the Parent Mile, which is run after the 1 mile participant race. We hope that you will stay to help celebrate with everyone!
Based on advice from experts in youth sports and child development, HKRS has begun offering non competitive programming in the pre-k dash divisions, to refocus the emphasis on fun, physical literacy, and consistency - rather than competition. Results, points, and trophies will be awarded starting in kindergarten-8th grade with the timed divisions (1/4 mile and up), not the pre-k dash divisions. Pre-k dash participants will still receive t-shirts, race bibs, and medals.
Kindergarten-8th grade: points are accumulated over the total 5 weeks of races. The runner with the most accumulated points after the final week is the winner of their division! It is based on OVERALL accumulated points over the course of the entire Series.
2. Parent Mile! Don't forget your sneakers parents! Immediately following our 1 mile participant division, we will start the Parent dash and then the Parent Mile - 1 mile race!
The Parent Mile Waiver is required to be completed and signed online prior to running this race. If you plan on running in the Parent Mile, fill it out as soon as possible. A Parent Mile QR code will be at the registration area to sign up in case you forget.
We will start the awards ceremony for our youth runners following the Parent Mile and we have finalized all race results.
3. Race Bibs
Make sure race bibs are COMPLETELY filled out! We cannot give your runner points if this is not filled out.
If you need a race bib or sharpie to fill it out, go to the registration area before your race.
3. Theme Week!
Reminder that our theme week is HKRS Colors for our last week!! Wear green, white and blue or your HKRS t-shirt!
4. HKRS HQ Policies
You can review all HKRS HQ policies on the Race Day tab on the HKRS website.
Please review the Code of Conduct and Tie Break Policy.
5. Registrations are still welcome
We offer single race days for all of our races. Anyone is still welcome to register on week 5 for a single race!
5. Cheer!
Just a friendly reminder to cheer on all of our runners for their hard work. Thank you for your help with this! We want to create an atmosphere where all of our runners feel supported and congratulated on a job well done this season!
6. Alsies Harrisburg Ice Cream Truck will be on site with special treats! Guests are responsible for payment.
