We are excited to host the 14th edition of this beloved MLC Homecoming tradition! This FREE event has become a favorite way for many to kick off Homecoming celebrations.
WHEN & WHERE
In-person participants: The race will begin and end at the Sprinter Statue outside the Luther Student Center on the MLC campus. Check-in will be from 8:15 to 8:50 AM in the LSC. A group photo and instructions will be given from 8:50 to 9:00 AM, and the race will start at 9:00 AM.
Virtual participants: Complete a 1-mile route (walking or running) anytime between September 30 – October 5. We encourage you to wear your MLC gear (or black and red) if you have any! Then upload a picture of yourself to the Sprinter Fun Run Kudoboard by Saturday, October 5, at 5 PM. Please share the names of the people in the picture. Any registered participant who is pictured will be qualified for a door prize.
REGISTRATION & PRIZES
Registration: The registration deadline (if you would like to qualify to win a door prize) is Thursday, October 3. Walk-ins are welcome to join us, though! You do NOT need to be registered for the Fun Run to participate on the event day. You will register for the Fun Run and t-shirts at this site.
Register for the Sprinter Fun Run here!
Prizes: There are 3 prize categories for in-person and virtual participants: youth (high school and under), current MLC students, and adults.
The black shirts (pictured below) are short-sleeved, soft-style, and available in Youth XS—Adult 4XL. Additional sizes are available but will be printed in a slightly different shirt style. If you want to order an alternate size, please email zahrtse@mlc-wels.edu. T-shirt costs:
- Youth (high school age or under) – $8.00
- Current MLC students – $10.00
- Adults (not current MLC students) – $12.00
Postage costs (USPS to U.S. addresses only . . . apologies to our international friends) will be a flat $10, regardless of the number of shirts sent to your address. If you have more than one t-shirt sent to you, please register one participant as a “T-shirt (with postage)” and the others as a “T-shirt (no postage).” We will send all the shirts to the address listed for the “with postage” registrant.
Locals and MLC students do not need to pay postage and may pick up their shirts at the event. All virtual participants will have their shirts mailed shortly after the event (included with their prize if they are a winner).
Note: You will not have a paper ticket with online registration. We will have your name from the registration.
