The Austin Runners Club hosts its 34th annual Daisy 5K. The Round Rock Premium Outlets will once again be the site for the Austin Runners Club's 5K event. We're going back to some traditions this year, and we're also bringing some new ideas. That is why this year is is the ...Dukes and Daisies 5K. In the past, there have been times when Daisy was a women's only race held on Mother's Day. Over the years men have been welcome to join to celebrate the women in their lives and to allow families to run together. Dukes and Daisies 2011 will feature running events for the whole family and will move back to the traditional Mother's Day schedule.
Daisy will still offer the special amenities that Moms will enjoy, like a stroller division and a separate women's start. And in keeping with the family friendly theme, participants that wish to run with their leashed dogs are welcome, but for consideration of all runners are directed to line up with their pets at the back of the final race start.
Running with headphones or audio equipment is allowed, but strongly discouraged due to consideration for the safety of all runners, walkers and wheelchair participants.
The Daisy kids K is for kids of all ages. Parents are welcome to run with their children (for free) or along the side of the course.
Come on out for this great annual event and Austin tradition. ARC and Georgetown Runners Club members benefit from discounted registration rates--contact your club for more information. Races start at 8AM sharp. read more
