Have a little fun chasing skirts!
-----------------------------------
Local Boulder company, SkirtSports redefines the 5k on September 6,
encouraging men everywhere to follow in women’s skirt-clad footsteps
SkirtSports, creator of the original
fitness skirt, announces registration for their fourth SkirtChaser 5K
race of 2008 in Denver, CO, to be held on September 6, 2008. The
innovative race begins with an all-women’s start, followed by a men’s
“skirt chaser” start three minutes later and will conclude with a
post-race block party at Fillmore Plaza (Fillmore Plaza & E. 2nd
Ave., Denver).
“The SkirtChaser Race Series is unlike any race you’ve ever
participated in and we’re thrilled to be bringing it back to our local
community,” said Maria Hennessey, Director of Sales and Marketing for
SkirtSports. “Our goal is to bring both women and men together to
celebrate fitness and socialize in an atmosphere that is friendly,
encouraging, and most importantly fun.”
True to the unique style and flavor of SkirtSports fashion, post-race
events will include a block party with free beer from local brewer,
Oskar Blues, Red Bull mixes, great food, a fashion show and a live
band. SkirtSports
products, sold through Outdoor Divas (2717 East 3rd
Ave, Denver), will be for sale at the party as well as a variety of
products from other community sponsors involved in the race.
Female participants will receive apparel from the new SkirtSports Race
Collection which includes a Catch Me Race Skirt, while the male
“SkirtChasers” receive a men’s technical tee, featuring Coolmax
technologies. Admission to the post-race block party is included with
each entry. Prize purses will be awarded to the top three participants;
first place $500, second place $200, and third place $100.
