This a 1.2 mile race or walk/jog for kids K-5th Grades (adults can run with them, no need to register), through the park. Hundreds of kids from the metro area participate. Dearborn Schools’ students will start at NOON, including Lindbergh. The plan will be that I will pick-up the packets a day or two before and hand them to registered students. We will meet at a designated spot for our school, given by the organizers, 1/2 hour before race start. Parents and Students that run the 5K and longer races will have to register as individuals (10% off 5K, 10K, 13.1 or 26.2) use coupon code:  SCHOOLGROUP18, but can also race at noon with the rest of Lindbergh students. PLEASE NOTE, all other schools run with their school shirts during the race. Even though we get an event t-shirt, we would also like to show our Team Spirit and run with our Lindbergh Flyers shirts, if possible.
