Freezer 5K 2009
December 20th, 2009 | Published in Recent Events
Twas the week before Christmas most wrapped in their Snuggies, But not the hard core they were going out running
Track pants were on, sneakers were laced, You do the shopping, I will go race
The Freezer this year has a number for me, A holiday 5K around waterfront streets
Run in the cold, at a fun race, At mile 1 they will call out my pace
Burr it’s cold, it’s freezing outside, But I’d rather be here vs. in the mall lines
I’ve got my fleece hat and my fingered gloves, After I run I’ll fill my stomach with love.
The 2009 Freezer 5K Run kicks off at 11am in the Cobblestone District of Downtown Buffalo on Sunday, December 20th.
Our USATF Sanctioned 5K Run features a 3.1 mile course on the roads around the HSBC Arena, the Buffalo Serviceman’s Naval Park and to/from the Erie Basin Marina on Erie Rd.
Sure it’s most likely going to be chilly, and perhaps a tad snowy, but we aren’t calling it the Freezer for nothing! Our 2009 event helps support the Buffalo Police Athletic League (providing athletic opportunities for our city youth programs) highlighting the health benefits of physical fitness and sports leadership.
A hoppin’, warm post-race party at WJ Morrissey’s will feature DJ entertainment, great Irish food, pizza, adult beverages from Lake Placid Brewing Company and soft drinks/hot drinks to keep your holiday season heated up!
Holiday attire strongly encouraged!
