Raising Awareness and Support for Down Syndrome Individuals
Cairn University Athletics and RUN 12:1 Running Club are excited to once again host the Rock Your Socks 5K run/walk for Down Syndrome.
World Down Syndrome Day (WDSD) is celebrated every year on March 21st (3/21) because people with down syndrome are born with 3 copies of the 21st chromosome. And because crazy and colorful socks are a symbol of WDSD, we ask everyone to wear the craziest most colorful pair (or miss-matched pair) of socks they can during the race to help raise awareness for down syndrome.
This year's race falls on WDSD, so we will actually be running on 3/21!! Also new this year, we are awarding RACE MEDALS to all runners (instead of the traditional race shirt)! But as usual, in addition to traditional race prizes, prizes will also be awarded to those with the craziest socks at the live event.
The proceeds from this event will go toward the Cairn Student Scholarship Fund for a student planning to work with special needs individuals.
Register now for either our 5K or our family-friendly 1-mile fun run. There is also a virtual option for those who prefer or are unable to join us in person on March 21st.
So, be sure to wear your most colorful, crazy, and/or mismatched socks to raise awareness and support for Down Syndrome individuals! Special prizes for those with the craziest socks!
