Beat the Heat 5K sponsored by Kia Autosport

On your mark, get ready, and sign up for our next 5K Fun Run - the Beat the Heat 5K sponsored by Kia Autosport! Happening on Saturday, July 29 at 8 a.m. at Doughboy Stadium! This family-friendly run is perfect for the Georgia summer heat, so prepare to get soaked! The course will be lined with sprinklers and runners will be equipped with water guns and balloons. Spectators are encouraged to join, too! If you live along the route, bring out your garden hoses and your water guns to give the runners a refreshing way to cool down.  Pre-register online or in person at Smith Fitness Center. Pre-registration costs $15 for ages 6 and older and $10 for racers 5 and under. Day-of registration prices increase by $5 for each age group. Shirts and medals are guaranteed to the first 150 runners to register.

This 5K run is open to everyone, bring the kids, dogs and your neighbor; runners who didn’t register or pay just won’t receive a shirt or medal. But come on out – no matter what! It’s a fun run! For more information contact Ashley Appell at ashley.r.appell.naf@army.mil.
