PARKING --
Do not park on
Havelock Avenue east of 60th Street or on 63rd Street south of Havelock Avenue.
Avoid the parking lots of businesses that are open on race day. We suggest
parking south of Havelock Avenue and west of 63rd Street. Parking is available
at St Patrick's Church, 6216 Morrill, and at the Goodyear Recreation Center,
6224 Logan.
PINNACLE BANK CHALLENGE --
The Havelock
Charity Run emphasizes team competition, while still welcoming
individual entries. In the team competition, Pinnacle Bank will donate up to
$75 to a charity chosen by your team. When your team is created, you will be
able to choose a charity from the menu provided online. This charity receives
$50 if five members of your team complete the run; if your team runs faster than
the designated Pinnacle Bank Team, your charity receives a total of $75. Last
year Pinnacle Bank donated more than $7,000 to the charities selected by teams.
TEAM RULES:
1)
Any group of runners may form a team. Each team must have a captain who is
responsible for creating the team entry and a team pass code on the registration
page. The team captain also selects the team category, charity and race
distance.
2) There is no team entry fee; each team member pays the entry
fee when registering. Additional team members select the team name from the
menu and enter the pass code when entering.
3) Teams may have a maximum
of seven members; team scores for the Pinnacle Bank Challenge are calculated by
adding the times of the top five finishers (with the exception of Mixed Teams).
4) Special team eligibility requirements:
Youth: Age 14 or younger.
Mixed: At least two members of each gender must count in
the score.
Corporate: Employees and family members are eligible.
PINNACLE BANK TEAMS
3K - Christine Luu, Peggy Rada,
Nga Vu, Jeff Bomberger, Eva Liakos, Ryan Trauernicht
10K - John Laflin, Craig Anderson,
Dustin Bauer, Jason Culver, Whitney Nelson, Wayne Rediger
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
1)
While all participants should know the course, it is particularly important for
slower participants (13:44/mile pace or slower) since course volunteers will
leave 1-1/2 hours after the start of the race. Slower participants will be
allowed to finish but may be asked to move off the street and to the sidewalk
for their own safety. The finish line might be disassembled and no guarantees
if there will be any food left.
2) The use of personal music devices is
strongly discouraged at this race. To enjoy all that our race has to offer and
for the safety of all participants, the Havelock Charity Run encourages a
headphone-free environment during the running of either the 10K or 3K races.
3) It is not permissible for runners or walkers to be accompanied
by dogs, leashed or unleashed, in either race.
4) Teams must choose from
the charities listed on the menu online; no exceptions will be allowed.
