Hakuna Matata 5K

Kappa Epsilon's Chi Chapter  will be hosting Hakuna Matata, a 5K Walk/Run on the morning of Saturday, October 21st.  All proceeds will be donated to BrightPink - the only non-profit organization that focuses on breast and ovarian cancer awareness.  While this event is on the SDSU campus, everyone is welcome to register and partake in the event.  All ages are welcome!  And if speed isn't your thing, no worries.  Awards will also be given out for "Most Pink," so be sure to plan your outfit accordingly!

Registration will take place in the Union Market and will be open starting at 8:00am - feel free to check-in anytime between 8 and 9 so long as you have enough time to jump into the race!  The race will begin at 9:00am.  Snacks will be available for race participants after the event free of charge.

All registered participants will receive a race T-shirt.  Those that register on or after Friday 10/13 will not be guaranteed a t-shirt in desired size or logo design.  Shirts with "It Starts With State" will be available as an alternative for those who sign up on 10/13 or after.  These shirts are limited in sizes and thus desired sizes are not guarenteed.

This event will not be 'official' in terms of exact times or precise course length.  However, we will do our best to ensure it is at a high standard. 

More information will be sent out the week of the race!

5K route will begin and end at the Weary Will and Dirty Lil' statues north of the SDSU Student Union.  Race will go north past Ag. Berg Hall, then west to Medary, from there traveling south.  Turn left (east) on 8th Street by Pugsley.  Continue on 8th Street until Greek Village is reached.  At that point, turn with the bend south towards the fire department.  Turn east onto 6th street at that intersection and follow along the southern boarder of McCrory Gardens.  Travel north once 22nd Ave is reached.  Continue north to University Blvd and travel west back to campus.  Turn south on Jackrabbit Ave. by frost arena.  Travel until Student Union Lane (Caldwell Hall).  Head towards the Student Union, but turn to go towards the Wellness Center once Caldwell Hall is passed.  Head north towards the Wellness Center to the main entrance / big rock.  Turn west again and head on back to the Hobo sculptures to finish!

Chalk markings will be noted on the side walks. Volunteers will be at key corners throughout the race.
