Overview
Join Us for the 2024 Makona Fraternity Flamingo 5K: Supporting Breast Cancer Awareness!
Mark your calendars for the 2024 Flamingo 5K, hosted by Makona Fraternity at McMurry University! This family-friendly 5K and Mile will take place on Saturday, October 19, 2024, at Wilford Moore Stadium. For this event we have partnered with the Cancer Services Network to raise awareness and funds for families affected by breast cancer, with proceeds directly benefiting those in need.
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and with nearly 297,790 new cases of breast cancer diagnosed in 2023, the cause hits close to home for many. The Flamingo 5K is an opportunity for the community to come together, show support, and make a difference. Whether you’re a seasoned runner or just want to stroll, everyone is welcome!
Registration is now open for $30 per participant, which includes a 2024 Flamingo 5K T-shirt, a drawstring bag, and a water bottle. This year we also have the opportunity to offer a Makona Mile option for a $20 registration with the same gear provided on a modified track for runners who need a more accessible option than a full 5K. Check-in opens at 8:45 AM, and the race begins at 9 AM, with the route both starting and ending at Wilford Moore Stadium.
Dress in pink, bring your friends, and come prepared for a fun and meaningful event, we can't wait to see you!
