Ape Stages 5k Race To Support Drinking Habit (and to Support Military Families)

Race Registration Opens Today!

Online PR News – 17-March-2016 – Leesburg locals may have seen an ape roaming the streets of downtown recently; shopping, drinking, heckling fellow pedestrians, or just causing general mischief and mayhem. This ape is on a mission however; hes out to help military families and have a great time doing it.

The Ape hosts a charity 5K race in Leesburg, VA called the Apesh*t 5K. The AS5K is not your typical 5K however. You run with a partner and stop along the race route to compete in four events: cornhole, golf putting, darts, and pong toss. Have skills in one or all four events? Those skills are rewarded with minutes subtracted from a teams overall race time so even those athletes who may not be the fastest runners still have a shot at Apesh*t glory.

The Ape has been fast at work planning the next AS5K, which will be held on November 6, 2016 at Westpark Golf Club in historic Leesburg, VA (thats right, you get to run on a golf course!) Race registration is now open!

So grab a partner, register, and well see you on November 6th for the Apesh*t 5K The 5K Evolved.

Learn more about the race and register at www.as5k.com. Hear a special message from The Ape here: Fireside Chat and follow us on Facebook and Twitter.

A portion of the race proceeds will go to our favorite military charity.
