Organiser's description

Welcome to race registration for the 11th Annual Waters Of Life Lutheran Church 5K. This year we will be raising funds for MN Assistance Council for Veterans (MACV). At MACV, serves Minnesota Veterans who are either homeless or at-risk of becoming homeless and their families. They welcome all Veterans, and work to uphold the worth and dignity of all those who are involved with MACV.

Their goal is to help Veterans live as independently as possible by providing the services that they have earned. They offer services across Minnesota which include housing help, employment services, and legal assistance through their Vetlaw program. They also connect Veterans to our networks of local partner organizations who also help Veterans.

EARLY BIRD PRICING (valid now through July 31): $30 for adults (over 18) and $20 for Children 10-17, under 10 is free. And Additional $20 per adult and $10 for Children10-17 effective August 1, 2024.

The route begins and ends in the Church parking lot. There is limited parking so car pooling is suggested. This is a run/walk/bike for all ages! This year we are again offering a virtual event for those who can not participate with us.

ALL runners/walkers/bikers should pre-register using this site by July 31, 2024 to guarantee your shirt size. If registering as a family or as a group, please designate a team name (have fun, be creative) so that t-shirts and bibs can be grouped and only one person will do pickup for all. Make sure to share your team name with the rest of your group if they will be registering separately from you.

Each individual person needs to be registered, including children. Participants will be allowed to sign up on race morning starting at 8 a.m. (shirts not guaranteed). On race day, pre-registered racers will pick up their bibs (for all participants) and shirts starting at 8 a.m. and up until the pre-race festivities begin.

Donations If you are able to donate extra for the cause, donations can be made via this registration process online, and/or in person on race day at the t-shirt pickup spot.
