The Warrior 196 Board has opted to transition the Eighth Annual Warrior 196 Memorial 5K to a VIRTUAL event format due to continuing restrictions and guidelines regarding the COVID-19 pandemic.
Here’s how we plan to host the event:
The Warrior 196 will host a swag pick-up (race shirt, dogtag, and assorted discount coupons) at Run ‘N Fun in Burnsville on Wed/Thu. 16-17 September for local registrants. The Warrior 196 will mail outstate and out-of-state registrants their race shirt and dogtag as well; please check the $10 postage box as you register.
Here’s how we plan to host the event:
- We plan to ‘hold the race’ over a 7-day period from Saturday, 19 September to Saturday, 26 September, giving participants ample time to run, walk, or ruck a 5K (3.1 mile) distance. Take photos of your family, friends, and/or teammates while participating and upload them to the Warrior 196 Facebook page, or to the Warrior 196 on Twitter and Instagram. We will not be able to post times or award age group champion this year.
- We ask that all interested in participating in a virtual event, to register for the event via Chronotrack.com, Active.com, via the race registration page on the Warrior 196 website, or through the Anderson Race Management website. Your registration will guarantee you an Eighth Annual Warrior 196 Memorial 5K long-sleeve race shirt and a complimentary participant dogtag (like we’ve handed out to all participants at the end of the race in previous years.
The Warrior 196 will host a swag pick-up (race shirt, dogtag, and assorted discount coupons) at Run ‘N Fun in Burnsville on Wed/Thu. 16-17 September for local registrants. The Warrior 196 will mail outstate and out-of-state registrants their race shirt and dogtag as well; please check the $10 postage box as you register.
- Individual registration for the rest of July remains $30, with said fee moving to $35 for August, and $40 from 1-13 September.
- We encourage participants to form race teams and will continue to offer team discounts as we did last year:
- Teams of 5 or fewer = $27 per person
- Teams of 6-11 = $24 per person
- Teams of 11 or more = $21 per person
- The Warrior 196 encourages all past participants to share the event with their family and friends and invite folks into the Warrior 196 ‘community’ to participate in this virtual event. One of the positives of this virtual event, is that one can participate where they reside, so the Warrior 196 could easily be a nationally-based, if not globally-based event.
- All proceeds from registration will go directly to scholarships for local graduating seniors. The Warrior 196’s mission is to perpetually pay forward the collective legacy of our five ‘196 Warriors’: CAPT Nathanael Doring, LCPL Daniel Olsen, CPL Benjamin Kopp, 1LT Christopher Goeke, and CPL Andrew Wilfahrt. Your registration and support helps to sustain the foundation’s ability to pay forward their legacy while we honor and remember their sacrifice.
