Are you traveling to Decatur for Penguin in the Park this year? With the assistance of one of our community partners, the Decatur Area Convention and Visitor’s Bureau has secured discounted hotel rates for race weekend. These special rates are valid for Friday and Saturday night. Simply call the hotel of your choice and let them know you are in town for Penguin in the Park. Negotiated rates can be found under our website under Accommodations.
It’s a new year and time to look forward to the 11th Penguin in the Park 5K on 3.19.16. Online registration is now open. Come be a part of Macon County’s largest 5K run/walk and see John “The Penguin” Bingham in his only public appearance for the year. We’ve added a 300 meter Tot Trot this year for the youth to get involved in the fun as well. Use the discount code WADDLEON to receive a $2 discount on your registration. Visit penguin5k.com/race-information for all the details.
The Penguin in the Park race committee has been hard at work getting the wheels in motion for 2016. Stay tuned as online registration will be forthcoming. We also are excited to announce a little twist as the Penguin 5K enters its 11th year.
Once again, Staley Credit Union is providing drawstring backpacks to the first 1,000 registrants. Get your registration in soon (we’re getting closer to 1,000 than you might think!).
This penguin just realized there are less than two weeks until race day. Online registration continues until March 25 at the current rate of $25. Join John Bingham for our 10th anniversary Penguin 5K followed by a post race party filled with prizes, awards, and plenty of food. All finishers receive a commemorative “Penguin” medal.
We’re almost 3 weeks into 2015. Do you need a goal to keep you on track with your fitness goals? Commit to the Penguin in the Park 5K Run/Walk on March 28 to give you some motivation. John Bingham is training to run/walk with you as he attends in the year of his retirement.
Register online before March 1 to get the best price on registration with no processing fees.
