Organiser's Description

THE PJ RELAY
CALLING ALL SLEEPWALKING SUPERSTARS!

Its time once again for the biggest little race in town: The Lazy Days of Summer 0.5Kand this year, were putting the Zzz in zoom with our new theme:

THE PJ RELAY.

Thats right. Grab your slippers, fluff your pillow, and stretch those sleep-deprived calves because were racing (term used very loosely) in our jammies for a cause that matters. Whether you're rocking footies, flannel, or full-on satin glam, this ones for you.

This isnt about speed or stamina. Its about showing up half-awake and all heartfor the kids.


LET'S SETTLE THIS

Is it really a race? Nope. Not even close. Just four short laps (if you're even counting - we aren't) around the parking lot at Paducah Beer Werks and it's over. Doesn't matter if you cross the finish line first, last, or ever. You still shine like the star that you are. And you get to drink beer at the hydration station along the way. After the final lap you will finally know what it feels like to cross a finish line in a blaze of glory. And best of all, you are helping our community's most vulnerable children by DOING NEXT TO NOTHING! It just doesn't get any better than that.

PJ RELAY FAQS....

* WILL I BE DRUG TESTED BEFORE THE RACE? _Negative. We don't expect this crowd to be into performance enhancing products.__ _
* WHAT IF MY PERFECT SATURDAY INVOLVES MY BED, JUNK FOOD AND NETFLIX? _Don't worry. You can be home by noon with plenty of daylight left to waste._
* EVERY TIME I HEAR THE WORD EXERCISE I THINK ABOUT EXTRA FRIES. CAN I DO THIS? _That's what we call motivation. Seriously, have you tried Beer Werks fries? Treat yourself after crossing the finish line._
* WHAT IF I TEND TO STUMBLE OVER ABSOLUTELY NOTHING? _It's fine. That's what the liability waiver is for._
* WHAT IF I TYPICALLY GET WINDED WALKING FROM MY CAR TO THE COUNTER AT COLD STONE? _Thats probably just adrenaline. Be sure to stop at the hydration station for a beverage from Paducah Beer Werks and youll be just fine._
* WHAT IF I ONLY OWN SLIPPERS? _You've found your people. _
