Sacramento State is getting its new Recreation and Wellness Center off to a running start with a 5K Fun Run beginning at 6:30 p.m., Thursday, April 16. The run will begin at Serna Plaza and make its way through campus.
The run is a promotion for the new 153,000-square-foot Recreation and Wellness Center (named “The WELL”) scheduled to open in fall 2010. It is being built on the north end of Hornet Stadium.
The run is free for students, faculty and staff and $20 for alumni. Participants can register online at www.csus.edu/hlth/5k/. Runners can also register at 5 p.m. on the day of the race. People who pre-register will receive a free T-shirt and racing packet.
The run will cause traffic delays from 6-7 p.m., on State University Drive West, Sinclair Road and Stadium Drive. Traffic coming from the south end of campus is advised to use State University Drive East and to use parking lot 7 and parking structure 2.
