The Wellington Runners Club recently announced that Ideal Nutrition is the new title sponsor of its 16th annual Wellington 10 Miler and 5K races taking place Sunday, Nov. 6. The iconic race showcases the beauty of the community by winding its way around the Village of Wellington and throughout the Equestrian Preserve Area.
Ideal Nutrition is making its debut as the primary sponsor of the race, highlighting the company’s commitment to health and wellness. Ideal Nutrition is a meal prep delivery service offering pre-made meals using only fresh ingredients. Delicious, healthy meals are made with natural ingredients. Free delivery is included with a subscription. The company will be opening its first Wellington area retail location soon.
“Giving back to the community has always been a part of our company’s DNA,” Ideal Nutrition CEO Wolfgang Brunet said. “We are thrilled to be teaming up with the Wellington Runners Club to support the South Florida community through this engaging event.”
The Wellington 5k and 10 Miler is designed for runners of all types, from the casual weekend runner to those looking for the perfect fall tune. The course begins and ends at Tiger Shark Cove Park. The 5K course runs along a paved path on Greenbriar Blvd., while the 10 Miler runs through the scenic Wellington Environmental Preserve at the Marjory Stoneman Douglas Everglades Habitat located on Flying Cow Road. The 10-mile run is a combination of paved path, shell rock road and boardwalks through the wetland habitat. Race proceeds benefit local charities.
“It’s incredible to be part of such a special event that raises funds for an organization like the Kids Cancer Foundation, touching the lives of so many individuals in the local community,” said Sheri Kleinman, president of the Wellington Runners Club. “With the help of Ideal Nutrition as our title sponsor, and all of our partners and dedicated race participants, we’re able to give back year after year.”
Registration for this year’s Ideal Nutrition 10 Miler and 5K is now open at www.active.com.
