CLEVELAND — For the first time in seven years, the Minute Men's Inside the Park run was held at FirstEnergy Stadium.
In years past, the races were held at Progressive Field. With the change, the official name of the run became, The Touchdown Run.
This year's event was organized by Hermes Cleveland. The race benefits the Cleveland Furniture Bank, helping to fund the Beds for Kids program. Families in need of simple furniture are the recipients.
Three races were held this morning at 9 a.m.
Touchdown (4 Miles - Chip Timed):
- A 5K course on the streets of Cleveland. After getting your split time, you run the last mile by entering the Stadium and run the ramps to the finish!
1st and 10 (1 Mile - Untimed):
- This started at the same location as the 4 Mile run. Those taking part made their way to Alfred Lerner Drive and then back into the Stadium, up the ramps to the 3rd level concourse to the finish!
40 Yard Dash (Untimed) for kids 7 and under:
- Every participant gets a prize
