SagerStrong Foundation Fun Run at Truist Park set for August 22

Calling all baseball fans and friends -- join the SagerStrong Foundation for the third annual (last year’s run was virtual) 3K Stadium Fun Run inside Truist Park, home of the Atlanta Braves, on Sunday, August 22nd. This fun but challenging course, designed for the baseball enthusiast, will take you on a journey inside and throughout Truist Park –around the main concourse, through the maze of ramps, to different levels of the stadium -- as you finish strong inside Truist Park and enjoy the morning from the same perspective as your FAVORITE Braves players!

The SagerStrong 3K Stadium Fun Run is a family-friendly event – designed with all ages in mind - there will be a 3K run, walk, and a Kids Dash (ages 7 & under) offered both in person and virtually. Gates Open at 6:30 AM; runners begin the 3K Fun Run at 8:00 AM, walkers at 8:20 AM, with the Dash to follow. Our younger Dash participants will receive a t-shirt for running the event. In addition to a fun run through the ballpark – the only run of its kind contained entirely within Truist Park -- our fun run participants will receive a t-shirt, as well as an Atlanta Braves game ticket to the Braves vs. Giants game, August 28th at 7 pm. Discounted tickets available for family and friends to join you at the game, as well. The fun run event will end with a staggered party in TENT TOWN – a fun, interactive area of vendors and games in the space outside the Left Field gate, created just for participants of this event, in waves, with food options, music and prizes after giving your best effort to run #SagerStrong.

Proceeds raised through the Stadium Fun Run will benefit blood cancer research and programming for families of children with blood cancer through the SagerStrong Foundation. Participation costs are as follows: 3K Stadium Fun Run (suggested ages 8 and older) - $49 a participant (includes 3K Fun Run, t-shirt and lower level ticket to Braves game on 8/28); OR $35 for the Stadium Fun Run course only (8 and older) live or virtually, and Stadium Fun Run Kids Dash cost –course only -- (ages 7 and under) - $10 a young participant (includes run and t-shirt only – tickets can be ordered separately at link below.)

About the SAGERSTRONG Foundation The SAGERSTRONG Foundation was founded in 2016 by former Hall of Fame and two-time Emmy Award Sports Reporter Craig Sager and his wife Stacy, to fund and support blood cancer research and trials, so that one day, leukemia patients and their families will not have to go through the battle they endured. The Foundation has raised over 1.3 million dollars to help fund blood cancer research, including two clinical trials at MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston. These important trials support Dr. Naveen Pemmaraju's (Craig's doctor) research with current Myelofibrosis patients and patients with Advanced Myeloproliferative Neoplasms. For more information on these trials, research, the #SagerStrong Foundation and events, or to make a donation to support this important work, please visit sagerstrongfoundation.org .
