In lieu of the Saipan Marathon’s 10K run, the Northern Marianas Athletics is hosting a 10K Road Race in conjunction with the CHCC Oral Cancer Awareness 5K Walk/Run this Saturday, April 15.
The course is the same as the previous NMA Women’s Run that began at the Hyatt Regency Saipan’s Club Elan parking lot.
The 5K walk/run is already sold out, but slots for the 10K are still open.
The registration fee is $15 and will end tomorrow, Tuesday. For the U18 2x5K Team Mix Relay (1 male and 1 female) event, the registration fee is $10.
The Top 3 male and female will receive medals from NMA.
Robin Sapong, NMA general secretary, said “we decided to organize the 10K run just to offer a race option for those that had planned to run in this year’s Saipan full/half marathon 10K run.”
