Rattler Run, hosted by Otero College, to be held on April 15

The Otero College Rattler Run will be held this year on Sat. April 15. This event is sponsored by the Otero College Foundation. Early registration for the event is now open and will continue through March 31. Registrations will be accepted until the day of the event but at a higher fee.

Scheduled for Saturday, April 15, the run will have two events, a 5k fun run/walk and a 10k run. The 10k will kick off the day at the Student Center, located at 2001 San Juan Ave. at 9 a.m., followed by the 5k that has a start time of 10 a.m. There will be awards for fastest time in the male and female categories for both races as well as a 14 and under winner for the 5k.

The early registration fee for the 10k will be $30, while the 5k is priced at $20. Current Otero College students will be able to register for $10 for either race. The price of registration includes a t-shirt that participants can pick up the day before the races, Friday, April 14, in the Otero College Fitness Center between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. Registrations received after March 31 do not guarantee receipt of a t-shirt and will increase by $5.

Dillon Martin, Foundation Director, shared, “We’d really like to encourage all Otero College supporters to come out to this event. This is a great opportunity for the community to come together and support our student success. Everyone is welcome!”
