AMHERST-AVON LAKE CANDY RUN

We will be hosting the 11th Annual Avon Lake-Amherst Fun Run at ALHS/Kopf Reservation. Here's important information regarding the race:

  • Athletes are to bring their uniforms, normal running shoes (no spikes), two bottles of water, and normal apparel to wear pre- and post-race.
  • Runners will change after school, eat their snacks, and then will be bussed to the high school. Bring everything with you! We will not be returning to Learwood.
  • You do NOT have to ride the bus, however. If you want to go home first, then ride your bike or get a ride to the high school, that's fine.
  • If you're not riding the bus please be there by 4:15 p.m. to help out and to cheer the athletes in the first race.
  • Since we're in town, athletes are allowed to carpool and we do NOT have to sign athletes out afterward. 
  • We will meet between AL Memorial Stadium & the baseball field--the same place we practiced this summer. Parents, the start and finish are the same place!
  • It's not a 'fan-friendly' course...so we apologize in advance. It's a fun route for the kids, and usually both teams like the course, but we'll be hanging out at the start/finish.
  • The race will be an informal 1.8-mile loop through Kopf Reservation.
  • We will be yelling out times but you will have to listen for them.
  • Top finishers will be getting candy!   
  • Here's the schedule:
    • 4:40 p.m.    8th Grade Girls
    • 5:00 p.m.    8th Grade Boys
    • 5:20 p.m.    7th Grade Girls
    • 5:40 p.m.    7th Grade Boys
See everyone Wednesday!
