Cupid’s Undie Run

I spent a portion of my 2015 Valentine’s Day participating as a Cupid’s Undie Runner. Despite it being February, the weather was beautiful. I was probably the most clothed runner at this event. Most people chose to run in their literal skivvies — boobs and butts were popping out like no one’s business. But hey, I was wearing my boyshort undies over tights so there!
The pre-​party was held at the Commonwealth. Drink specials were offered to runners and a cool photo prop/​booth was available for photo ops. The race started and finished in front of Commonwealth.
Cupid’s Undie Run was only a mile long. :/​I’d prefer a 5k but whatever! The course was a simple run around the block but runners still had to wait for lights to take their turn. I’m used to runs that close off streets for the event. A cool part of the run was the final stretch, where you ran through a main thorough way on Fremont and were cheered on by onlookers. Run Forest, Run!
The charity the run was benefiting was the Children’s Tumor Foundation. Cupid’s Undie Run was heavy on the fundraising bit and participants were given a page online to fundraise from. You had to raise over $ 5 to get a t-​shirt.
I registered on
for $ 20. I look forward to participating in the 2016 Cupid’s Undie Run and promise to fundraise next time! ;-)
