We know the kids want to be a part of the fun, so we're bringing back the MSDA Meghan Doyle .05K Fun Run for the 10 & Under crowd. The races will take place before the '05K, because we know they'll be raring to go. Just sign them up on the Registration page under the Fun Run -- no registration fee for this race. The Fun Run will start at 9:00 am, before the start of the '05K.

The Virtual MSDA Meghan Doyle '05K will run from Saturday, May 2, to Sunday, May 10, in the location of your choice, at your convenience*. Plan your favorite route, whether it may be around the park, neighborhood, back yard, or on your treadmill.

All Virtual participants will be assigned a bib number. You may print out your bib for the Virtual MSDA Meghan Doyle ‘05K which can be worn during your race (for your photo ops). We hope you will share your photos with us on social media using the #MSDA05K.

When you are ready to go, just pin your bib to your shirt, get out there and run, jog, or walk those 5 kilometers (3.1 miles). We recommend you plan your course in advance to verify the distance, and keep track of your time while running the race. Once you have completed your course, have rehydrated, maybe had a bagel, and patted yourself on the back for a job well done, text, email or upload your time to the Virtual MSDA Meghan Doyle '05K results page. Instructions will be sent to you prior to race day. Trust us, this is the easy part!

We hope you will consider the option that works best for you and your family. Most of all, we want to thank you for your continued support of the students Mount St. Dominic Academy.
