The Poker Run by the Kinesiology Club, UW-Madison

This year, we have changed our theme from the Poker Run to the Throwback Thursday 5K Run/Walk! Runners are encouraged to dress in any attire they consider "old" or "retro" (i.e. old high school jersey, old athlete/sports team, old singers, etc). They have the option to be as creative as they would like with their outfits. Prizes will be awarded to the top male and female runners, as well as the top 3 best costumes and the best group/pair costume! In addition, each runner will receive a free Throwback Thursday 5K Run/Walk T-shirt! Free snacks and refreshments will be provided after the race.

Proceeds from this race will benefit Tri4Schools, a nonprofit devoted to ending childhood obesity in Dane County through youth swimming, biking, and running events and programs that support school health and fitness initiatives. The money we raise for Tri 4 Schools will help provide scholarships and equipment for kids in need.

Come join us for the Throwback Thursday 5K Run/Walk, RAIN OR SHINE!!
