There will be no traditional Wednesday Night Run on June 3, as the Pagoda Pacers will join Fleet Feet’s Big Run 5K at Trooper Thorn’s Irish Beef House in celebration of Global Running Day.

We’ll be setting up the Pacer tent around 5 p.m., and we encourage members to come out, wear their Pacer gear, and help represent the club. Events like this provide a great opportunity to connect with local runners, showcase our club and introduce future Pacers to everything we have to offer. Wear your Pacer gear, stop by the tent, and help us welcome runners from throughout the community.

A special offer is available exclusively to Pagoda Pacer members. Get 50% off registration using the discount code included in the email accompanying this newsletter.

Registration starts at 5:30 p.m. and the race starts at 6:30 p.m. We’ll also recognize the fastest male and female PPAC member participating in the race. Please stop by the Pacer tent before the start so we know you’re running. These prizes are separate from the event’s official awards.

NOTE from PPAC President, Steve Vida: PPAC members can use the discount code “pagodapacers” to save $10 on registration! Also, we will give a prize to the fastest Pacers running the race. Check in with us at the Pacer table before the race so we know who’s running. (This is not part of the official race awards from the race directors.)

Global Running Day is Wednesday, June 5.  Fleet Feet West Reading is celebrating with “The Big Run 5k” at the Brentwood Trailhead.  The Pagoda Pacers and other community partners will be there with our tents and tables set up to share information and promote the club.  More details are available here:

The club has a discount code (pacer10) for any Pagoda Pacers running the race. If you use this code, registration is only $10. We will also give a prize to the fastest Pacers who run the race. Check in with us at the Pacer table before the race so we know who’s running. (This is not part of the official race awards from the race directors.)

Because this is on a Wednesday, it interferes with our regular Wednesday Night Run.  We will not be leading a typical WNR group that night, but please come out and be part of “The Big Run” if you’re free!
