Get You In Shape 5K

11TH ANNUAL COPPELL 5K BENEFITING COPPELL SPECIAL OLYMPICS TEAMS

Race is on Saturday, Oct 24th at 8:00am at Andrew Brown East Park.   

On Saturday, October 24th, Get You In Shape is hosting the 11th Annual Coppell 5K benefiting Special Olympics Teams of Coppell. It is a community event with a 1-mile fun run, a timed 5K Race and a virtual option as well.   

For the past 10 years, the Coppell 5K has raised over $95,000 in support of our local Coppell Special Olympic Athletes. Our goal for the 11th Annual Coppell 5K is to continue to rally around these athletes with special needs and provide the financial support that this great organization needs. Coppell Special Olympics receives 90% of their funding from this one event.  This financial support enables the athletes to receive letter jackets at their annual Special Olympics Banquet and provides banners and signage for traveling competitions.  Annual needs also include uniforms, transportation, equipment and event fees.  

The Coppell Special Olympics team is an organization dedicated to individuals with special needs. They offer opportunities for better health, fitness and confidence in a variety of programs.  The mission of Special Olympics Texas is to provide year round sports training and competition in a variety of Olympic type sports. To learn more about your local Coppell Special Olympics Teams and the sports they participate in, please visit www.coppellso.org.
