Press Release Body = FitBeatsT, The Fitness MP3 Leader, has teamed up with the City of Glendale to host the 1st annual "FitBeatsT Metro Mile". The one mile race will be held on Saturday, October 6, 2007, and will begin and end on Glendale's newly constructed Infinity Park; North America's first municipal International Rugby Stadium. People of all ages, ability and experience level will be able to participate in the race, and a portion of the proceeds will go directly to the 'YMCA Strong Kids Campaign' which supports Glendale YMCA community programs for children, adults, families and seniors.
"FitBeatsT is thrilled about the Metro Mile," says Gregory Tanner, CEO and Founder of FitBeatsT. "The event is the first of many for us, and we feel privileged to be teaming up with such a great city like Glendale to host it".
The FitBeatsT Metro Mile is an effort to bring the greater Denver/Glendale community together through the nature of fitness, fun, and competition. Immediately following the race, runners and spectators will be able to enjoy music, food, and refreshments on Glendale's newly constructed Infinity Park, the first ever municipal U.S. Rugby Stadium. Rugby games and a casino night will ensue promptly after of the festivities.
"This event is going to be quite a celebration-it's the grand opening of Infinity Park," says Larry Harte, Mayor of the City of Glendale. "This is not an ordinary stadium. It's a community facility and we plan to use it for a variety of things. This run is a good example of how the city plans to be flexible with its use".
In addition to bringing the community closer together, the 'FitBeatsT Metro Mile' is also aimed at giving back to the Glendale YMCA. A portion of the proceeds will go directly towards supporting the 'YMCA Strong Kids Campaign', which supports Glendale YMCA community programs for children, adults, families and seniors.
"The heart of the Glendale YMCA operation is based on the Strong Kids Campaign which provides program subsidy and scholarships so everyone has the opportunity to participate in YMCA programs", explains Debbie Ford, Executive Director of the Glendale YMCA. "The hallmark of the success of the Glendale YMCA is collaboration with the City of Glendale and other organizations that support the healthy development of children, teens, adults, and families."
The 'FitBeatsT Metro Mile' will take place Saturday, October 6, 2007 at Infinity Park in Glendale, CO. For more information about how to register, go to www.fitbeatsmetromile.com.
