Saipan International School and Run Saipan will host the 3rd Annual Star Wars Day Run in the CNMI this Saturday. But this year, it has a twist.
Instead of May the 4th Be With You, this year it will be the Revenge of the Sixth, a tribute to Star Wars- Episode III-Revenge of the Sith, the sixth movie in the series.
The day will start off with the traditional NMI Jedi 5K run and a Sith 6K at 4:30pm. The Padawan 1 Miler for children 12 and under will start at 5pm. As usual, the kids’ race is free of charge but there is also the option of registration with a medal for $5. Anyone who registers through Raceroster will be able to download a finisher certificate. Registration is at: https://raceroster.com/events/2023/74994/revenge-of-the-6th.
Star Wars-themed costumes are encouraged for all participants and there will be NMI Jedis available for pictures on site.
This is a family friendly run for everyone in the CNMI that loves running, loves costumes and/or loves Star Wars. May the Force Be With You, NMI and Beware the Power of the Dark Side! (PR)
