Cheer on your pals who are running Nike!
Meet 8:00 AM at the beach sidewalk at Fulton and Great Hiway. This is where the race turns into the park. We'll root for all the runners who go by and will jump in to pace our own WOW Team members when they come through. We can also get in a run along the beach if we don't join in the mayhem of the race or stick around at the finish line. The running this day will be very casual. The main goal is to CHEER!
