Diva Dash

Saturday, November 10, 2012

9:00 am — Rice Lake Elementary School

575 Birch Street — Circle Pines, MN (see map)


       

This race is in its third year for 2011! Final Stretch, Inc. is working with the MN Ovarian Cancer Alliance to continue creating a race just for women. This race’s location was chosen for its beautiful trails, large sprawling park, and panoramic lake views. Both events will wind through the wooded trails of Rice Creek Chain of Lakes Regional Park, in Centerville, north of St. Paul. 

There will be long sleeve technical shirts cut especially for women, race bags filled with goodies that women enjoy. Before the race we will be having coffee and pastries, with soup and bread after the race along with a big pamper tent for massages, manicures, and other fun things.

Awards will be given to the top female runners in each age category: 19 & under, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60 & up. Award ceremonies will immediately follow the race near the start/finish line in the park. There will also be many Diva door prizes that you will surely love! Must be present to win.

$5 of each registration fee will benefit MOCA
