Shamrockers Run for the gold (race update)
The Northern striders has been communicating over the past week of our upcoming event the Shamrockers Run for the Gold.
We have look at all possible strategies to continue and provide a successful event for our community of runners.
We've delayed announcements because of the rapid changes due to the impact of our state and community and serious concerns relating to Covid-19.
We've been monitoring updates and changes throughout the days.
We have been gathering the guidance from the state of Michigan governmental health task force, local professional health department, and U.S.A. Track and Field and have been collaborating to create a decision.
On March 13 the Governor signed an executive order 2020-5 to cancel events of 250 people or more. Wasn't a concern, even though with the cancellation of events ours was gaining popularity of participants possibly near 200.
On March 15th The East Jordan Snowmobilers Club was closing due to concerns, however would allow the Northern Striders the use of the facilities and continue our event. We figured we still would pull it off having full use of the facilities. Days after the state made it mandatory restaurants to close down. So we considered still be able to provide drinks and refreshments. Following that state recommended keeping indoor activities to 50 people or less. Thinking we could still provide our event keeping it outdoors, the State of Michigan has changed the recommendation of gatherings to 100 people or less.
The changes of rules and regulation has been changing rapidly.
We've looked at several considerations, of even postponement however the daily changes are coming in too rapidly and our general concerns comes down to our family and friends of our running community and as Race Manager, I have to Cancel the Shamrockers Run for the Gold 5K in 2 mile walk.
I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. We are offering a refund which you we'll see within the next 14 days. Or we're offering people who have entered the shamrockers Run for the gold to automatically be transferred and registered for the Jordan Valley George Hawley memorial 5K, 10K race or 5K walk held October 17th in the beautiful Jordan Valley located at the Jordan Valley Federal Fish Hatchery. Please let us know if you prefer us moving your registration.
