Rock the House Run
Presented By:
On behalf of Ronald McDonald House® Southern Alberta, we are pleased to invite you to join us for the 2010 Rock the House Run presented by Apache on Sunday, August 8th, 2010.
Start your training now and join us for this race event with a unique twist, and a little shout. Begin at Ronald McDonald House® Southern Alberta with a rousing warm-up led by The Fitness Guy, Pete Estabrooks. Then enjoy a brisk 5K or 10K Walk, or for a little more competitive edge, the 5K or 10K Run. Families and younger athletes will enjoy the McDonald's Go Active 1K Walk.
As you pace yourself along the tranquil route through the University of Calgary roadways, you will be pleasantly diverted by some of Calgary's finest musical entertainers, artists, cultural dancers and performers. After the race, join us for a well deserved break as the main stage rocks with a lively musical jam of Rock the House Run™ bands. Pick up your awards and be sure to stay to have a good time at the children's area.
Some of the feedback we received from 2009 participants:
"Had a great run, a great event and for a great organization. See you next year!"
"I am very new to running and especially to running in actual races. I did one before in Dec. 2008. Well, I must say this was the best race ever. Thank you for all of your hard work and also to the volunteers. I had a wonderful day. I will highly recommend this race to all of my friends and look forward to running it in 2010!"
"Rock the House Run was awesome!! The energy from the people and volunteers was great, the goodies and food after was unbelievable. We'll definitely be doing it again next year. The kids did the 1km Active Walk/run and they loved it too. They got more loot bags and balloons on the route than I have ever seen!"
"Of all the organized events I've taken part in, Rock the House Run was by far the most fun and interactive experiences I have had to-date. The event was wonderfully organized, down to the last detail. The volunteers and staff were in such wonderful spirits - the enthusiasm of the day was just contagious! And who needs an iPod?!! Thanks to such a unique idea as bringing out live entertainment for the event, I was smiling and rocking out to SO MANY different types of music along the course. This was my first time participating in the race... but it certainly won't be my last!"
