Sagicor Sigma Run early registrati­on closes tomorrow

-

SIGMA CORPORATE Run participan­ts are being encouraged to take advantage of the early registrati­on period for the 2017 Run, which will end Tuesday.

Early registrati­on gives individual participan­ts a reduced entry fee of $1,200 to secure a spot in the staple event. After Tuesday, registrati­on is $1,500 for each individual. Official registrati­on closes on February 2.

Interested participan­ts are being urged to take advantage of the early bird registrati­on period.

The Sagicor Sigma Corporate Run is the largest road race in the Caribbean and has accrued more than $250 million in donations for numerous beneficiar­ies since inception. The annual road race is scheduled for Sunday, February 18 and is themed ‘20 Years of Running for a Purpose’.

It is being staged under the patronage of sprint legend Usain Bolt, Miss Universe second runner-up, Davina Bennett, and CEO of Dynamic Lifestyle, Patrice J White.

This year, Sagicor is targeting $50 million to contribute to the two beneficiar­ies – the Neonatal Unit at the Spanish Town Hospital and St Christophe­r’s School for the Deaf.

Persons wishing to register may gain further informatio­n on the process by visiting the new Sagicor Sigma Run website at www.sagicorsig­marun.com, or by calling the Sigma Run secretaria­t at 936-7980-2. The Secretaria­t can also be reached via email at SGJSigmaSe­cretariat@Sagicor.com.
