Simsonian 5K Kick-Off Classic #22
TWENTY-TWO YEARS! And still running. . . looking to get better and better! The Friends and Family of Steve Sims have joined forces with the Grosse Ile Educational Foundation, Inc. to make this the best road racing fundraiser ever. The 22nd annual Simsonian 5K Kick-Off Classic will again offer both an in-person and virtual race option for all to enjoy. The Grosse Ile “tradition” and traditional in-person race will be held Saturday August 17, 2024, at Grosse Ile High School
7800 Grays Drive on beautiful Grosse Ile, Michigan.
The One Mile (1) Fun Run/Walk begins at 8:30 a.m. with the 5K race starting at 9:00 a.m.
The course is a fast, flat course with views of the Detroit River and natural areas, with a finish in front of
Grosse Ile High . Runners receive a coveted T-shirt, DJ’d after race party, refreshments, and great raffle prizes (must be present to win).
For those who cannot join us in-person, the Friends of Sims are offering the wildly popular
alternative Virtual Race experience, with the window of competition from August 1, 2024 to
August 28, 2024. You can use your GPS to map your 5K and run, walk, or crawl your own race,
at your own place, at your own pace. If you are not able to participate in the live or virtual
events, please consider clicking the “Donate” button and help support this most worthy cause.
The 22th Annual Simsonian is held in memory of beloved teacher and coach, Steve Sims, who
died unexpectedly of a dissecting aortic aneurysm in 2003 at age 46.
All proceeds from the races, virtual or live, go to scholarships given to an outstanding male and female
scholar/athlete at GIHS. To date, more than $56,,000 have been awarded throughout race history.
So, your participation and support go to advance the spirit and legacy of Steve Sims in paying
it forward to another generation of promising youth--just what the Grosse Ile Educational Foundation, Inc. has done for almost 30 years.
Cost of registration for the Virtual Race is a flat fee of $30 (includes postage and handling)
for all ages and categories. After registering, an email will be sent to you with all information you will need to upload your results and photos to see how you rank among the other racers.

Children ages 10 and under--$10. Students 18 and under--$20, Adults--$25
Late (after August 11, 2024) or Race Day Registration—10 & Under $15 Students $25; Adults--$30
