Crystal City Cave Run November 14, 2009

Tired of running aboveground? Join us underground! Motley Crew Vault Club and USATF Ozark Association are pleased to annouce the 1st Annual Crystal City Cave Run in Crystal City, Missouri. The race is a fundraiser for our pole vault club.
There will be 2 races, a 5k and a Mine Mile, ran underground in a sand mine on Saturday November 14th. The course has a lake, sand dunes, and of course is underground.

For the 5k Race: $30 early registration.

Entry fee includes t-shirt. Race will start outside to give the runners time to spread out before they enter the mine. The end will be within the cave to avoid any shock that may accompany running from an indoor environment into what will likely be a chilly November climate. Walkers are welcome to compete as well.

For the Mine Mile: $10 early registration.

Entry fee includes t-shirt. The entire race will take place within the mine. It will be a run and raffle. Runners will be given tickets with their bib numbers. Along the way, there will be prizes with buckets near them. Athletes can choose which buckets they want to drop their tickets in. You can drop all in one or spread them out. All ages are welcome. Walkers are welcome to compete as well.
