Update: Happy Thanksgiving

5K Walk/Run for LUM — TOMORROW

It is not too late to

participate in

TOMORROW’s 5K

Walk/Run (Thanksgiving

Day, November 28).

We are very excited that

the 2nd Annual Tri-N-

Run Give Thanks 5K

(presented by Midwest

Rentals) supports

Lafayette Urban

Ministry.

There are currently more participants pre-registered for this year's event than last year’s. If

you are registered, packets will be available to pick-up at Tri-N-Run (13 N. Earl Ave,

Lafayette) on TODAY (Wednesday, November 27) from 4:00 – 6:00 p.m. Participants are

able to pick up their bib, shirt and race bag – and beat the rush on Thursday morning. If you

cannot make it to Tri-N-Run TODAY (Wednesday), race day packet pick-up will be from

7:00 – 7:30 a.m.

All pre- and post-race activities will take place at McCaw Park. The run/walk will still take

place on the Munger Park trail which starts on Creasy Lane, just across the street from

McCaw Park. There is ample parking at McCaw Park for race morning. The race does not

start in Munger Park on Greenbush Street.

Since temperatures are cooler, there will not be a water point on the course. Please plan on

carrying your own hydration. There will however be plenty of refreshments at the end of the

run/walk.

If you wish donate extra non-perishable food items

to Lafayette Urban Ministry there will be a collection box at the 5K event.

A map of the course is posted online HERE. Click HERE for sign up and get additional

information. We look forward to seeing you at the 2nd Annual Tri-N-Run GIVE

THANKS 5K Run on Thanksgiving Day!
