This year’s race will be held on Saturday May 9, 2015 at 9:00 AM. The SK5K is designed to accomplish 3 main goals:
* Fitness Awareness: In preparation for the SK5K, students of St. Katharine’s School have the opportunity to participate in an 8-week training course which promotes fitness by providing exposure to distance running, cross-training and healthy eating.
* Community Togetherness: The SK
5K is an excellent opportunity to bring together the residents of Wayne, local businesses, SKS Alumni and the St. Katharine's parish and school families to promote our community.
* Financial Support: All proceeds generated by the SK5K support the school and, in the past, have provided advancement in the areas of technology, science, art and capital improvements. This year’s goal is to raise $25,000 for investment in new equipment and research-based instructional software programs for our computer lab. Since it began in 2011, the SK5K has attracted more than 2500 participants from within the St. Katharine of Siena community as well as non-SKS runners throughout the area. The day consists of a 5K run, a 1-mile run, food, refreshments and music. Katharine of Siena School on Midland Avenue in Wayne, PA. The SK5K has been a wonderful community event and we are so excited to be approaching our 5th run. Whether you are a seasoned runner or giving a try at your first 5K, we invite you to join us on May 9th! We welcome all potential participants, sponsors and volunteers to contact us with any questions, comments or ideas. Thank you! We look forward to seeing you on May 9Th!
