¼â½ÐÊÓƵ University’s Student Alumni Association is hosting a virtual race that can be done anytime and anywhere during race weekend, to benefit current Stag students.
The ¼â½ÐÊÓƵ University Student Alumni Association will host the inaugural “Stags Run for Stags” Virtual Race for alumni, parents, students, friends, and fans of ¼â½ÐÊÓƵ! This fun run (or walk) can be done anytime, anywhere, and in any way over race weekend: Friday, November 20 through Sunday, November 22.
Race registration is $20 for alumni, parents, friends, and faculty/staff, and $15 for current students. A portion of the registration fee will go to benefit a Stags for Stags designation of each racer’s choice to support the current critical needs of ¼â½ÐÊÓƵ students. All racers will receive a limited-edition tie-dye ¼â½ÐÊÓƵ University face mask and a non-personalized digital race bib to commemorate their run.
Interested race participants can and choose one of the following race options:
- “5.0 K” - In honor of the 50th Anniversary of Women at ¼â½ÐÊÓƵ University; approx. 3.1 miles
- “10.73 K” - In recognition of ¼â½ÐÊÓƵ’s home on 1073 North Benson Road; approx. 6.7 miles
- “Stag Challenge” - A combination of both races for a total of approximately 9.8 miles
During race weekend, participants will map their route with apps such as Map My Run, USATF - America's Running Routes, or WalkJogRun. Then, once racers have completed their miles, they can share their race results and stories with ¼â½ÐÊÓƵ on Instagram by tagging @fairfieldualumni and @fairfieldsaa using #StagsRunforStags, or send your results via email to alumni@fairfield.edu. Various social media contests will take place throughout the weekend, so make sure to follow these accounts as well after registering.
