Organiser's Description

THE 15TH ANNUAL PITMAN EDUCATION FOUNDATIONS PANTHER PROWL WILL CONSIST OF A 5K RUN, 1 MILE WALK, AND A VIRTUAL EVENT.

5K RUN: This is the classic 5K run that starts at the Pitman Jr/Sr High School, makes its way to Kindle Elementary School, then back to Pitman Jr/Sr High School. The run typically finishes with a lap around the high school track. The track is currently under construction and may not be finished in time for this event and therefore the race course may be changed. This course crosses Pitman Ave and Holly Ave. There will be police and other volunteers at these busier intersections to stop traffic. There will be a water stop near the Kindle School. Additional volunteers will be along the route to stop traffic at other intersections. Please note, the course is only supported for 40 minutes. IF YOU PLAN TO WALK, PLEASE PARTICIPATE IN THE 1 MILE WALK, NOT THE 5K RUN.

1 MILE WALK: For participants who prefer to walk, the 1 Mile Walk is perfect. This event will start at the Pitman Jr/Sr High School immediately following the 5K start and goes through the streets close to the school.

VIRTUAL EVENT INFO: The virtual event can be done anytime! You can run, walk, or even bike any route, anywhere, and for any distance. There is no specific course you need to use. Run or walk with your kids, your friends, your family, your dog! Participate to show your support for our wonderful teachers! Keep in mind that your run is virtual and will not be supported. There will not be a water stop and there will be no volunteers to stop traffic. After you finish, share a picture on Facebook or Instagram using the hashtag #virtuallyontheprowl. There will not be any awards for virtual participants, however, you will receive a Panther Prowl T-shirt.

EVENT PARKING: Please note that Linden Ave between Waverly Ave and Edgemoor Ave will be closed to traffic for the duration of the event. You will not be able to park in the parking lot across from the school entrance. Instead, please park on the surrounding streets.

FREE KIDS FUN RUN: After 5K finish ~9:10 The course for the fun run is typically once around the track, but due to track construction, the Kids Fun Run will occur in front of the Pitman Jr/Sr High School entrance on Linden Ave. It will be similar to a 50 yard dash style of run.
