Mercedes Benz Corporate Run

April 24, 2014 · 6:30 PM
Bayfront Park

WHAT: Join us for the biggest 5k in Florida along with 25,000 other enthusiastic people at the Mercedes Benz Corporate Run. This will be my 3rd time participating and it gets better each year! This is a great way to socialize while exercising, get a boost of energy during the work-week, or get inspired to become a serious runner.

WHO: Anyone at any fitness level. Please be willing to jog or speed-walk during part of the time.

HOW: All serious registered runners will go first at the sound of the whistle. Then we (and everyone else---joggers, walkers, children in strollers, elderly people) will go after them at our own pace and enjoy the cool sights along the way in Downtown Miami and Brickell. It takes about 1 hour. Afterwards we can relax and enjoy some refreshments. For most participants, this event is more of a block party and a time to hang out than a competition.

WHERE: The race begins at Bayfront Park in Downtown Miami and goes through Brickell. Plan to arrive early. Please note the Directions, Road Closures and Course Map on the website: https://mercedesbenzcorporaterun.com/miami. To avoid traffic, take the Metrorail and/or Metromover.

WHEN: Our group will meet at 6:30pm SHARP near the starting line at Bayfront Park. I plan to arrive a little early and will post the exact street with a visible landmark. The race begins PROMPTLY at 6:45pm. PLEASE BE ON TIME as we won’t be able to wait for you and it will be impossible to find each other in such a large moving crowd. Allow yourself an extra 45 minutes to drive through traffic, find parking, and walk through the mass of people.

COST: Free

See you at the starting line!

Thank you for showing interest in Attract-ACTIVE. We pride ourselves in creating a unique culture full of diverse people and activities. If you are tired of doing the same weekend routine of hitting the bars and clubs and yearn for something more, Attract-Active is for you.

OUR PHILOSOPHY AND WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT:

Attract-ACTIVE was created with the intention of bringing active people together to share events and activities that offer a large variety of experiences rarely found in other groups. Unlike other groups with a single organizer, EVERYONE in Attract-Active can post their own events. This means the calendar is always full of activities and with about 200 MAX Organizers, there's a high chance you'll come across something you never knew existed. The experiences obtained from this group are meant to enrich us physically, mentally, spiritually, or socially.

HOW IT WORKS:

First 4 months in the group - PARTICIPATE

**IMPORTANT** Membership with Attract-active is SHORT-TERM so for your first 4 months in the group just SHOW UP and have fun! Meet some new people. Make some new friends. Share a new experience. Most of us don't bite. Most of us. VERY IMPORTANT, you must RSVP responsibly. 2 Strikes (No Shows) and you're out.

AFTER first 4 months (**to extend your time in the group**) - RECIPROCATE

After your first 4 months of attending events, to remain part of the group, your next step is to post an idea for an event on the calendar and be prepared to host it. It can be an event to take place no sooner than a week away, or be as far out as a couple months. Make sure your event is detailed with info, date, time, place, costs, contact, etc. Be informative and give it some visual appeal to attract members. Reminders are sent when I'll be cleaning house at the end of each month.

Every 4-6 Months thereafter: Continuate (yes, I made that word up)

Once you've become an active member/organizer of the group, we hold everyone to posting 2 events a year (or as often as you like).

THE FINE PRINT:

You must be between the ages of 21 to 43 years of age.
No sniper posting events (events that take place sooner than a week away)
No Co-Hosting: Exceptions to this rule may be approved so e-mail me.
No House parties: The use of a member’s home may only be allowed as a venue for a special event and must be approved prior to posting.
No bars/clubs: Exceptions are only given if there is a compelling reason why the event must be in that venue or something extraordinary is happening there.
RSVP responsibly. If you can't make an event, update your RSVP. If you're unable to, note it in the comments section after as a courtesy to the organizer. 2 "No Shows" to RSVP-critical events and you're out.
