IMPORTANT NOTICE -
Be Mine 5K - Postponed until Saturday, March 6
FORECAST: 38 degrees and sunny. Clear trails, no chance of ice.
We want to get the 2021 running season off on the right foot. After looking at the route today we made a decision to postpone the 5K one more week. While half of the trail is 100% clear, the other half is still about 6 inches under snow and ice. The snow, due to the freeze and thaw is causing divots or as we would call them, Ankle Twisters. This would cause issues with your footing and is not favorable to any winter running. Under normal winter conditions we want snow covered and compacted trails, but ice is not a runners friend.
With that said, the weather outlook for the next week will be in the 40’s with rain on Sunday. That means next Saturday the trail will be 100% clear and no chance of ice build up. The snow will be completely gone.
We apologize for any inconvenience, but lets start the year out strong and keep our feet and legs safe.
Please don’t hate us… we have your best interest in mind.
Safe running!

COVID 19 SAFETY PROTOCOL:
FACE MASKS ARE MANDATORY AT THIS EVENT. You must wear a face mask before and after the run/walk. We will provide you a reusable mask. You may remove them while running at your discretion as long as you are not in a crowded area. 10 Minutes prior to the start of the race you are asked to assemble near an orange traffic cone in the staging area. Each coned area should consist of groups of 10 or less participants. Each group will be released every 15 seconds to limit overcrowding on the trail. Slower run/walkers/strollers should stage near the rear.
AWARDS. To limit person to person contact, your finisher's Medal will be included in your race packet prior to the race. If you win your division, you may request your recognition pin be mailed to you (a $3.50 fee will apply), pick up at the next race, or pick up at our office in Racine. The top 3 male/female OVERALL runners will be mailed gift certificates automatically. Final results will be available about 11:30 am. You can view results LIVE at www.5Kevents.org and click on the race results tab. Remember this is a chip start, so a person's finishing order via Gun Start will not be the same as Chip Start. The race clock will represent the official Race start time but not your actual finish time. If your final time, gender, bib# or other data is incorrect on the final results, please notify the race director using our online correction form. PLEASE, Do not interrupt the timing crew during the event.
You may submit corrections at: https://5kevents.org/result_correction.html. While results will be immediately posted online at www.5Kevents.org, results will not be official for 48 Hours. This will allow us to make corrections, but also time for our staff to enjoy the Thanksgiving Holiday as well.
RACE BIBS / TIMING: We utilize a shoe tag system. You must wear your shoe tags and race bib in order to be timed. Those who do not wear them or wear them improperly will be disqualified and asked to leave the course as we will not know if you are included in the race (this is for insurance purposes). Pull tabs will not be utilized to limit person to person contact. See image below for proper wearing. Tie one on the left shoe, one on the right. No tags, no time. Race bibs must be worn and visible at all times. Wear bibs front facing.
HAVE FUN! Help us make this event successful, Social distance, wear your mask and enjoy the outdoors for what should be a beautiful day.
I signed up to be a virtual runner for the Be Mine 5k. I received an email saying that my swag would be mailed to me. I haven’t received it. I emailed twice and have gotten no response. I am very disappointed. I don’t know if I’ll be signing up for any of these races, virtual or otherwise, if this isn’t resolved soon.
