Provo Santa Run

                                                     Santa Run Dec 3 2011

We had another chip event in Provo another Santa Run. The Santa Runs are way fun.  We packed the suburban and stopped at Valley Fair mall to pick up Ema Maile. She came to help pass chips out and run the 5k.

The Santa run in Provo was more exciting with a lot more people then West Valley. The Provo Santa Run kicks off the Provo WinterFest Activities. The race was held on the day Provo has their traditional light parade. Because of the parade we had to be there early and set up for the run to start and then the parade after. We passed chips out while the runners signed up and picked up their packets and Santa Suits. We also had many people off the street come and grab chips while we were waiting for the race to get closer to start time.  We even had a few people from out of town watching out their hotel windows and saw everyone coming to get chips so they come down and did the same. When the Race began we went along the route passing chips out and mixing with the other Santa runners. Andy stayed at the booth and passed out chips. By the time we got around Andy was so swamped we had to help him in the booth. We passed out the rest of the coupons and the chips. Here is a few picture from the event.

Had a great time and did a lot better on this 5k. 33min pretty good for also passing out chips.

We cleaned up our booth and went across the street to a mexican restarunt and had dinner then home.
