The Race to Educate is Saint Columbkille Partnership School’s signature annual fundraiser. Nearly 50% of our students qualify for financial aid, and furthermore, 30% of our students qualify for federal Free or Reduced Lunch. As such, funds raised through race entry fees and sponsorships are funneled directly into the School’s financial aid budget. Tweet Bitran. General Catalyst Entrepreneurs. These donations help to ensure that no student is turned away from Saint Columbkille Partnership School, regardless of his or her family’s economic situation.

Know your pace. If want to run the 5K in 20:00, don't go out at 5 minute per mile pace. You won't be able to hold on, and later in the race, you'll end up crawling towards the finish line. It's not bad to be a little faster than your race pace goal, but it has to be within reason.

My old track coach had a saying that for every second you are out too fast, you will lose three seconds in the later parts of the race. Use your energy wisely so you can finish how you started.
