After 41 years and hundreds of races, Sommer Sports has accumulated a mountain of leftover medals, shirts, and awards. In celebration of Earth Day, we decided to recycle some of this swag by transforming our Earth Day Run into Sommer Sports Recycle Run. To help you recycle some cash, we've also reduced the entry fees for the event! Recycle Run participants will now be able to select their race shirt from more than a dozen different events, and their race medal from dozens more. 7 Mile Challenge participants will be able to select two shirts and three medals. Recycled awards from previous races will be awarded for both the 2 Mile and 5 Mile events. After the race you can enjoy the great post race party you expect from Sommer Sports Events.

April 19, 2025

2 Miler - 7:15AM; 5 Miler - 7:45AM

7 Mile Challenge: Run both the 2 Mile Run (7:15 AM) and the 5 Mile Run (7:45 AM) and receive a cool third bonus medal.  Please note you must sign up for both the 2 Mile and 5 Mile runs at the same time via the Seven Mile Challenge Bundle to be eligible for the third bonus medal. Please note that the Seven Mile Challenge bundle includes three medals and two event shirts.  Note the start time of both races to make sure you can complete the 2-mile run before the start of the 5-mile at 7:45 AM.
