Dear 2017 Sean’s Run 5K Registrant,

Thank you again for your support of Sean’s Run Weekend Presented by Dietz and Watson.

You took the time and effort to sign up and to come to Chatham on April 30th to run or walk in our 16th annual 5K, sponsored by Coon Self Storage – and we were excited and prepared to provide you with a great experience. Your name was to be announced as your crossed the finish line. Our finish line festivities were ready with an abundance of food, music and awards. We planned to make you feel proud about your accomplishment – perhaps this was to be your first 5K, you were going to set a Personal Record, or it was to be your first time running since an injury. For many of you it was to be your annual running of Sean’s Run 5K.

Unfortunately the weather did not cooperate and we had to cancel – for the first time ever.

Your entry fee has been well invested in the grants given to 13 schools and youth groups to implement programs that combat underage drinking and impaired driving and encourage use of seatbelts.  Also, proceeds from the event supported 3 scholarships to deserving college-bound seniors. 

Without our sponsors and participants like you, this would not have been possible.

As a small gesture of appreciation for your goodwill and best intentions, we are going to name each of our 5K registrants as a “Special Sean’s Run Honoree 2017.” Your name will be posted on an Honor Roll at our website in the coming days.

We hope that you felt the special spirit of Sean’s Run when you arrived at Chatham High School and that your enthusiasm for Sean’s Run has not been dampened. The many emails we have received and comments on our Facebook page confirm that despite the rain, there were many positives for our registrants – we are pleased for that.

We are already planning next year’s event and hope you will be back April 29, 2018 for a wonderful 17th Sean’s Run Weekend. 

On behalf of a very appreciative Organizing Committee – thank you very much.

Mark D. French, Secretary
