Are you traveling to Royal Resorts for week 7 in February? If you enjoy running, why not compete in the First Royal Resorts Foundation Race for charity and help Dani, a courageous little boy from the village of Leona Vicario who has brittle bone disease (Osteogenesis Imperfecta).

The Royal Resorts Foundation has teamed up with Cancun-based NGO Érase Una Vez Un Hogar, A.C., to help five-year-old Dani, whose bones are so brittle that he has already suffered 14 fractures in his short life. The goal is to build a home for Dani that will be a safe and happy environment for him to grow up in, and to help provide the bone mass studies and medical treatment he needs. By signing up for the race, you can help raise money for this worthy cause.

Race time is February 21, 2016 at 7 a.m. and the starting line is at The Royal Sands. Race distances are 3, 5 or 10 kilometers. The age categories for male and female runners are as follows: Free (15-39 years), Master (40-49 years) and Veteran (50 and over). The Race Fee is $250 pesos per runner and includes a souvenir t-shirt and finalist’s medal, race number, chip, water and an isotonic drink at the finish line.

Prizes will be given to the first three places in each category in the 5 and 10 km races for men and women. The first three Royal Resorts employees to cross the finish in the 5 and 10 km races for men and women will also receive prizes.

If you would like to register for the race please email: contact@royalresortsfoundation.org . The closing date for registration is February 16, 2016.
