Run the Sun Challenge

Fleet Feet Sports Run the Sun Challenge

Join Fleet Feet Sports as we celebrate the Grand Opening of our new location in Sun Prairie on Sunday, September 21, 2014. As part of our Grand Opening celebration, we will be having a relay from our west side location to our new location. Participants can choose to either walk, run or bike as a team or as an individual. In fact, participants can go from the west side store to the Sun Prairie store any way they’d like as long as it doesn’t include a motorized vehicle.

Run to Sun Challenge "suggested" Mapped Route

Note: You are allowed to go however you choose, but this is the shortest route between locations. The one part of this route that we would highly recommend to runners and cyclists is that this route is the best way to cross the I94/90/39 Interstate.

• Check in begins at 1:00 pm on Sept. 21 at the west side store location (8440 Old Sauk Rd)
• Participants can choose any route from the starting location to our new Sun Prairie location (2828 Prairie Lakes Dr #106), but they must “check-in” at 5 different check points along the route
• Participants must also obey all traffic laws
• Participants need to provide their own hydration and nutrition, although some nutrition will be supplied at Orange Shoe Personal Fitness Downtown (water, gels).

The 5 check points are:

1. Oscar Rennebohm Park (N Eau Claire Ave. & Regent St.)
2. Brittingham Park along Monona Bay (401 Brittingham Place)
3. Orange Shoe Personal Fitness (1 E. Main St. on the square)
4. Tenney Park (on E. Johnson St.)
5. Home Depot East – parking lot (2425 E. Springs Dr.)

Check Points

• Participants must take a photo at each check point in order to check-in
• Photos can be posted to social media with #ffrunthesun.
• For relay teams, the check points are also the transition points to change runners (you can drive to drop off and pick up relay runners)

Once the store closes for regular business on Sunday at 5:00 pm, we are inviting the relay participants, our customers, friends and family to stick around for the Grand Opening Party at our Sun Prairie store. Snacks and drinks will be provided. Also, even though the Run the Sun Challenge is not a race, prizes will be randomly awarded to individuals and teams.
