READY. SET. GO!
Celebrate Mercy Day with the MMA community during the 2022 Mercy Day Fun Run/Walk! Join us on the school campus (or in your own neighborhood) on Saturday, September 24, 2022 for an exciting 2K run or walk with friends and family, gathering us in a shared celebration of movement, wellness, community, and fun! You may run, jog, walk, stroll, dance your way through the 2K -- whatever you are most comfortable doing! Families and children are most welcome!
Race proceeds will benefit the MMA Alumnae Association, as well as the Mercy Girl Effect—an annual project that brings together students from Mercy schools around the country to raise awareness of global issues and empower young female leaders to change the world.
Highlights:
- Race day check-in opens at 8 AM, and race begins at 9:30 AM! Each participant will receive a 2022 Mercy Day Fun Run/Walk tee-shirt, as well as food and refreshments on the day of the event.
- Can’t be here in person? No problem! Please register via the race event option ON MMA CAMPUS or race event option YOUR OWN LOCATION. We would love for you to participate on your own or with a group of family and friends any time on September 24th! Tee-shirts can be picked up at Merion Mercy the week of September 19 or, if you are out-of-state, we can mail them to you.
- The cost for participation is $25—from campus or your own neighborhood. Current MMA students receive the discounted rate of $20 by entering the discount code STUDENT at checkout.
- Group costumes/themes welcome. Prizes for the top three "most creative"!
- Please tag Merion Mercy in your Facebook posts and @merionmercy on Instagram; use the hashtag #MMAFunRun2022. Share your costumes, your run and/or your finish, and, of course, show off your Mercy spirit with our community!
