More About Run Your Socks off 5K
The Down Syndrome Association of SWLA invites you and your family to participate the Run your Socks off 5k +, in honor of World Down Syndrome Day! Our run will not be the traditional 5K (3.1 mile) but will be a 3.21-mile walk/run. The 3.21 represents that individuals with Down syndrome carry 3 copies of the 21st chromosome. So, our route will include that “little something extra”. We have also had a small group of individuals with Down syndrome who have been training to run or walk this event , so this will be their moment to shine and show our community their “capABILITIES”
We couldn’t think of a better day to host our inaugural run but on the weekend before World Down Syndrome Day( 3/21) March 18, 2023. We invite all runners or walkers with varying Abilities to join us.
Race Day Schedule:
· 6:30-7:30am: Onsite registration and packet Pick up
* Onsite/Day of registration increases to $40 per runner
· 8:00: Race Begins
· 9:15 appx: Awards
