What do you get when you combine Girl Scout Cookies and fast-paced runners?
A Thin Mint Sprint!
For a second year, the Girl Scouts of West Central Florida will be hosting their delicious Thin Mint Sprint 5K and Tagalong Trot on Saturday, September 27 in beautiful downtown Safety Harbor.
Allana and I had such a fun time last year and we are so excited to return with Emmalynn in tow this time.
Just like last year, the 5K and 1-mile race day participants will receive finisher medals for each event. I absolutely adored the medals and the matching green Thin Mint Sprint t-shirts.
Also like last year, the top 50 male and top 50 female 5K finishers will receive a box of their favorite Girl Scout cookies, compliments of FITniche! I’m really hoping to win a box again this year.
The faster runners can also expect an awards ceremony for the top 3 male and female finishers. But even if I don’t make the top 50 again or earn a finishers award, I can still indulge in the stacks and stacks of FREE Girl Scout Cookies at the post-race party.
Along with the 5K and 1 mile fun run, the organizers have added a VIRTUAL option as an added treat this year. So, no matter where you are in the world, you can “tagalong” with my girls and me for this tasty race to support the Girl Scouts.
To participate in a virtual Thin Mint Sprint, simply run or walk a 5K distance at your own time and method – road or treadmill, all in one day or split up the miles between days. Virtual race participants will receive a bib and race shirt.
Whether virtually or locally, don’t miss out on this fun and tasty event! Online registration closes on at 11:59 pm ET on September 19 or when the registration hit the maximum capacity of 1,000 race participants. Register here.
