关于赛事
Every year, we host many events with fantastic swag, but we ALWAYS have leftover shirts, medals, awards, and more. We believe that everyone should have leftovers on Thanksgiving and have partnered with North Kent Connect to help clean out our warehouse while helping to raise funds and food for those Kent County residents who need help this holiday season. Of course, with this being a Tris4Health event, we can't just have a boring leftovers run, so we have created the THE LEFTOVER RUN aka the Jon and John’s Tris4Health Grand Rapids Virgil and Louise Phelps Memorial Celebrity Leftovers Awareness Pro-Am Fun Run Race to end Hunger. Now, if you aren't a fan of The Office, that title might seem ridiculous, but all you really need to know is that we will have a great time raising money and food for a great cause.
How does it work?Our friends at North Kent Connect are the official charity partner for this event. The race entry fees have been deliberately set low, and we hope that you use those savings to donate at checkout. All donations go directly to North Kent Connect to help those in need in our area.
While cash is excellent and can always be used, we also want to help collect food to ensure everyone has Thanksgiving leftovers. With that in mind, we have created what we think is a rather unique scoring system for this race. Every boxed or canned good you donate will result in 30" being deducted from your finish time. If you want to go all out, every pound of a frozen turkey will reduce your time by 1'!
For example, if you donated 4 canned goods (2 minutes) and a 20# turkey (20 minutes), your time would be reduced by 22 minutes! Just think, you can break the space-time continuum with a negative overall time, and you don't need a Delorean to do it!
Kids Race Free!Kids 9 and under can enter the 1 mile and 5k events for free. They must be accompanied by an adult and registered for the race, just like everyone else, but you will not be charged.
