Organiser's description

We are returning to our roots! The Tortoise & Hare fundraiser actually began many years ago as a walk, and this years event recaptures our origins with the Walk for Mercy. Although there will be no 5K race this year, we hope past years runners will also join us in the circle drive at the Hall of Waters, where the two-mile course begins and ends .

Early t-shirt pick-up will be held at the Good Samaritan Center from 5 to 7 p.m. Friday, June 20. Late registration/t-shirt pickup will be held at the Hall of Waters starting at 8 a.m. Saturday, June 21.

REGISTRATION DEADLINE

Be sure to register by Friday, June 6, 2025, to be guaranteed a t-shirt. Late registrations after June 6 wont be guaranteed to receive a shirt.

HAVE MORE FUN WITH A TEAM of your best friends or co-workers! Create a team of five, and each participant will receive a $6 discount (only $24 -- like signing up 4 and getting the 5th member free). You might even want to get artistic and design some team t-shirts for your group. Team leaders have the option to create a team and register all of the members together, or to allow team members to register individually after the team has been created. (Note: The discount is applied retroactively when the final team member registers.)
