A tag team race is being planned in conjunction with Mayville State University’s Farmers Bowl festivities Saturday, November 1. The race starts in front of Old Main. Start time for the male division is 8:00 a.m. The female division starts at 8:20, and the co-ed division will begin at 8:40 a.m. Race participants should check in at the MSU Wellness Center prior to the start of the race on November 1.

The race will be on a one-mile course around the campus of Mayville State. Each runner completes one mile, then tags their partner, who then runs the last mile to finish the race. Runners are encouraged to be creative and come dressed up. A special award will be presented to the tag team dressed up as the “Craziest Comets!”

Runners may compete in two races on this day, and pay $10 per race in which they participate. All participants will get drawstring backpacks from Climb the Podium Events. All proceeds of the event will benefit the Mayville State Wellness Center. For more information, contact Rick at 701-788-5265 or richard.karboviak@mayvillestate.edu.
