Date:  Sunday Dec 8, 2024

Place:  Jim Dietrich Park

Registration: 8:30 a.m.

Race start:  10 a.m.

Swag:  Tank Top, Men’s & Women’s sizes, bright colors

Pre-registration is only for the series.  Race day registration is available for the series or individual races.  Series runners can pre-register online at www.pretzelcitysports.com until midnight on the Wednesday before the race; or by mailing the app and a check.  Apps can be printed from our website www.pagodapacers.com.  

If you choose not to run the race, please consider volunteering.  We need volunteers before the race (for parking); during the race (on the road, at the finish line and in the farmhouse); and after the race (for cleanup).  Currently we believe we have enough volunteers for registration.  To help us with volunteer assignments, we prefer that volunteers contact us prior to race day. If you have not already talked to one of us, please reach out to Georgine via Facebook or Instagram or email (gmmccool56@comcast.net).  

If you can help prior to the race, please plan to arrive between 8:00 – 8:15.  If you can help with the race itself, please arrive no later than 9:30.  Look for one of the race directors somewhere around the farmhouse.   Thank you in advance for your support!

Hope to see you there!!!

The SHIVER by the RIVER 5K & 10K is NOW. (And by “NOW” we mean a little over a month away.) The first one is Dec 8^th, at Jim Dietrich Park, in Muhlenberg Twp.  Registration opens at 8:30 a.m.; both races start at 10 a.m. If you can’t run all 4 races, run 3, run 2, or run 1.  

The Shiver is unique in that at the end of a 5K loop, runners can decide if they want to go through the chute and finish the 5K or continue and do the loop a 2^nd time, completing a 10K. Runners can run different distances each month or the same distance each month.

So come out and join us; it’s a great way to maintain your motivation to run through the winter. See old friends; meet new friends; and see your time get faster from month to month! 

Snacks and hot soup will be served after each race. An awards banquet will take place after the March race; it’s free for all runners who have completed at least 3 races.  

Runners can register online at Pretzel City Sports, or they can mail in an old-school registration form with a check.  As always, we will have race day registration. The deadline for pre-registration is 11/15. 

The ’24-’25 swag is a tank top. Racerback is available for women. Both are in bright colors. Register early to guarantee a tank top; we will have a very limited number of extra tank tops at the race!!  

If you choose not to run the race, please consider volunteering. We need volunteers before the race–for parking and registration; during the race–on the road, at the finish line and in the farmhouse; and after the race–for cleanup.  If you can help prior to the race, please plan to arrive between 8 – 8:15 a.m. If you can help with the race itself, please arrive no later than 9:30a.m. Look for one of the race directors somewhere around the farmhouse. Thank you in advance for your support!
