Tim Galla Run

HUGE Shoutout to Ken and Becky Kossin! They did the Tim Galla 5k in the Smokey Mountains in Tennessee on Saturday! Way to go!
With the race being virtual this year, you can run/walk/swim/bike ANYWHERE to complete the race!

🏃‍♀️A Letter from the Galla's🏃‍♂️
Hello all,
First and foremost, we hope that you and your families are safe and healthy.
Many of you have reached out to us or to Hermes asking if our race was going to be happening as scheduled. Late last week in conjunction with Hermes and the Metroparks, the decision was made to reschedule the 2020 Tim Galla Memorial Home Run for Sunday, October 18. The event will still take place at Edgewater Park at 9:00 AM. We will still have raffle baskets, door prizes, the DJ, the food trucks, etc. There are, however, a couple of changes regarding registration options.
Because we realize that the events surrounding the coronavirus pandemic may have financially impacted some of our participants, we have made available a limited number of Complementary Race Registrations. We do not want anyone to miss our event because of the cost. This registration option will get you a chip-timed entry, but will not include a shirt.
We have also added a registration for virtual participation. If you are unable to make it to Edgewater on October 18, you can complete your 1 mile or 5 K run in Tim’s honor at your convenience in the place of your choosing. Your Virtual Registration will get you a race T-shirt, race bib, (which will be mailed to your home) and entry into the door prize drawings. To participate virtually, simply log your activity on your Fitbit or activity tracker and submit your time back to us via email by race day. We will announce our virtual race winners via email after the October event.
For your convenience, I am attaching the link to register online through Hermes. Please share it with anyone you think would like to participate.

Stay well, and once again thank you for helping us to celebrate and honor Tim!
