CENTER OF THE UNIVERSE BREWING COMPANY AND RICHMOND RACEWAY TEAM UP TO OFFER THE FIRST EVER 0.0K NON-RUN FOR A GREAT CAUSE TO RAISE MONEY FOR THE PINK INK FUND.
Ashland, VA June 15, 2018: Center of the Universe Brewing Company and Richmond Raceway are pleased to announce the inaugural 0.0k Non-Run for a Great Cause and its beneficiary, the Pink Ink Fund. On July 7th at 1pm, as a part of the larger Fried Food Festival taking place that day, participants of the 0.0k run will gather at Center of the Universe to stand, sit, or kneel, in the most comfortable way possible, as the brewery staff carries the finish line over their heads. As a reward for the participants’ hard work, each will be given a custom fanny pack, bottle opener finishing medal, 0.0k shirt, and an ice cold beer. For every $25 entry fee, $10 will be donated to the Pink Ink Fund through Richmond Raceway Cares, the community arm of Richmond Raceway.
“Running isn’t for everyone. Sometimes a beer, some friends, and great food are all you need on a Saturday. Now you can get all of that, raise some money for a great cause, and get rewarded for it. Now that is a race I can get into.” – Chris Ray, co-founder of Center of the Universe.
Registration has already begun for the 0.0k race and participants can sign up at https://goo.gl/4zWJSu, but slots are limited.
