    Annual event gives back to non-profit organizations

    logo_runsedonaSedona AZ (February 8, 2019) – Every year, to add the excitement and comradery of the RunSedona event, a $200 award is offered to the best aid station. Since the RunSedona event offers three races including 5K, 10, and the half marathon, aid stations are strategically positioned every two miles to support participants hydration, nutrition and safety needs. Aid station volunteers also act as wonderful cheerleaders, often playing upbeat music and displaying motivational signs to further inspire the 3,000+ registrants.

    Thank you to the following businesses and organizations that stepped up to volunteer in 2019 at the aid stations:

    1. The Sedona Women
    2. Accord Hospice of Sedona
    3. Empire West Title
    4. Enchantment Resort
    5. Northern Arizona Trail Running Association (NATRA)

    This year, all aid stations were in complete control of their exposure and reach, as it became a social media contest. The aid stations entered the contest using these three simple steps:

    1. Take group images/video before, during and or/after the marathon
      (please show costumes, team spirit, high energy, props, safety, registrant interaction/cheering.) The more the merrier.
    2. Share on Facebook, Twitter, and/or Instagram
    3. Tag all images/videos using #RunRedContest

    The winner was chosen based on the total number of engagements per aid station team (engagements are Likes, Comments, and Shares). The Aid Station Contest winner was revealed on February 6 on @RunSedona social media outlets and was mailed a check for $200.

    And the winner is…

    War
    War
    By Tommy Acosta
    War…What is it good for? Obviously, it is good for those who profit from destruction and the taking of human life. And what is the common denominator, the impetus for war throughout the centuries? It’s about the acquisition of land, by force, deceit or any other means possible. During the holidays I went to a party where this retired couple were recounting a land dispute they were having with their neighbor. It seems their neighbor was claiming an extra six feet on their property line and the animosity had grown so strong that they were now in court trying to settle whose six feet of land it was. Prior to the dispute they had been friendly but now they had become arch enemies, all for a tiny piece of land. Read more→
