Windward Challenge 2010

For the past ten years, the Windward Challenge has allowed us to get together as neighbors for a common cause and raise more than $750,000 for various non-profit organizations. The 2010 recipient will be announced in early spring.

Active people of all ages are welcome! Bring your family, including your dog, for a fun and healthy early evening activity. Last year, more than 500 people participated. This year, we will host post-race family-oriented activities along with the awards ceremony to thank participants for their support.

This year's highlights include:

• Bigger and better pre- and post-race activities. Bring your family, friends, kids and dogs!
• Electronic timing and custom designed technical race shirts.
• Sports-oriented activities for adults and kids, including super slide, bungee run, space walk, ping pong and basketball pop-a-shots, as well as massage tables for racers, face painters and magicians, and a dog area for racing puppies.
• Personal testimonials from the nonprofit beneficiary's participants on the impact the organization has had in their lives.
• Great food: pre-race snacks and drinks and post-race boxed meals for all palates.
• Great music, warm-up activities and fun race atmosphere all around!

If you cannot race, you can still participate as a phantom runner! By making a $25 donation to the race, you will not only contribute to a great cause but also receive the Windward Challenge race t-shirt.
