We are all looking forward to the 2nd running of the Founders 5k, to be held Saturday July 30th in Prospect Park. This CPTC hosted and operated race is held annually in honor of our Founder, Dave Blackstone.

As part of our increased efforts to grow the event we have brought on an incredible partner for 2011 – JackRabbit Sports. In addition to their prize commitment, they are offering a number of benefits for race participants and CPTC members:

· Founders 5k Packet Pick Up to take place at JackRabbit on Thursday 4-8pm at the West 72nd street store and on Friday 4-8pm at their Brooklyn store.
· JackRabbit to offer 15% discount to all race participants who pick up in person at a Jack Rabbit location
· JackRabbit will include a ’10% off $100’ card in all race packets

As a locally owned and operated event the Founders 5k relies on the support of our registrants and corporate partners in order to provide the best event day experience.

Should you feel compelled to support JackRabbit or take advantage of these promotional offers please be sure to notify a store manager of your race and club affiliation as they appreciate all of our feedback and support.
