The Boca Raton Memorial Day 5K/1-mile and kids’ run is set for Monday, May 30 at the Boca Raton YMCA (6631 Palmetto Circle S.).
The 5K (3.1-mile) race starts at 7 a.m.; the one-miler at 8 a.m.; and the kids’ runs at 8:15 a.m.
Something fun and unusual about this race is that, in addition to getting a t-shirt and finisher’s ribbon for competing, pre-registered runners are guaranteed a free pie at the finish! Post-race (morning) partying includes a DJ, food, drinks and more.
The cost to run is $30 through May 24 and $35 after that. All active and retired U.S. Armed Forces personnel receive free entry. To get your free entry, go to Runner’s Edge in Boca Raton (3195 N. Federal Highway).
