Teams of four will compete in a 50-yard shopping cart relay dash following the 5K race. In advance, collect as much food as possible for Manna's pantry. Ask friends, family and colleagues to donate food! The team that collects the most food items wins a top prize! See the items that are most needed in our pantry.

At the race, food will be distributed evenly in shopping carts and your challenge is to get to the finish line with the fastest time. Prizes will be awarded to the top three fastest teams. Awards will also be distributed for most creative cart and team costume, so bring items to decorate and wear. We'll provide the shopping carts! You bring the food and fun.
