Registration is now closed.
Join us as we kick off a series of shorter events that promote inclusion, comradery, and encourage all to participate: runners AND walkers! We will start the fun off on Sunday, March 28th with our partner event, Pound the Pavement for Peter’s Virtual Race Weekend - KPF Edition!
Space is limited and we anticipate this event will be wait-listed. Secure your spot, today!
KPF is proud to be reunited with our friends at Pound the Pavement for their 2021 Virtual Race Weekend. This will be our 5th year to partner with Pound the Pavement for Peter and we can’t wait to wheel together for inclusion.
We will meet at assigned wave times beginning at 8am.
ALL Participants who register with KPF by March 4 will be guaranteed an event t-shirt. After March 4th, t-shirts cannot be guaranteed.
Come join KPF as we welcome new athletes and volunteers and celebrate inclusion.
About Pound the Pavement for Peter:
Pound the Pavement for Peter is a Family 5K Fun Run that was started in 2009 in honor of Peter Hopkins, who, suffering from a Peroxisomal Disorder (PBD), lived his life with many disabilities, and eventually lost his life at age 3. This event is held to raise awareness and funds to help families and children with disabilities and debilitating diseases.
The Kyle Pease Foundation Policy for In-Person Events, effective Fall 2020:
Events will be limited in number and will require pre-registration.
No one is permitted to participate if:
They are awaiting a Covid-19 test result.
They have traveled out of the state of Georgia in the past 14 days.
They are feeling ill. This includes seasonal allergies.
They have been exposed to someone who has tested positive for Covid-19 in the past 14 days.
Each in-chair athlete, volunteer, and guardian/spectator must complete our health questionnaire upon arrival and sign an additional waiver. (Guardians will sign for those who are under 18 or unable to make their own mark.)
Each person in attendance will have their temperature taken. If the reading is above 99.6, that person as well as potentially those who traveled with them will be asked to leave and join us on another day.
KPF’s preference is the in-chair athlete’s family will take care of transferring them from their everyday chair to the racing chair and back. If this is not possible, volunteers will assist while wearing a mask and will use hand sanitizer between transfers.
The use of masks/face shields while gathering, setting up, running, and cleaning up is REQUIRED for in-chair athletes and REQUIRED for volunteers and guardians.
Whenever possible athletes and volunteers will maintain social distancing recommendations of 6-feet from each other.
