The Fox Cities Marathon is quickly approaching, and there’s been an addition to its name this year: presented by Miron Construction! Miron has been involved as the volunteer sponsor in the past, but as a company we’re excited to take on a bigger role in this exciting weekend of events. With the title sponsorship comes a list of new responsibilities, and we’re including getting our team prepped and excited for the weekend on the agenda. We have a number of events and initiatives going on for our employees leading up to the big weekend, such as:

• Lunch ‘n Learn discussions regarding proper training techniques
• All Miron employees who sign up for any of the Marathon weekend events receive a high-quality, dri-fit training shirt
• Marathon Madness: team-building activities during the week of the marathon, including a spaghetti dinner the Friday before and a celebration lunch the week after the events
• Casual days on the four Thursdays leading up to Marathon Sunday for employees who wear any past or present Marathon participant or volunteer shirt
• Gift cards to an area business for employees who volunteer in weekend events, such as at the Miron-sponsored water station on Sunday
• Weekly tips and training ideas to keep employees engaged and motivated in their running or walking programs
• Assistance with training programs for any distance, from a 5K walk to full marathon training

With so many perks to participate, we’re looking forward to the high number of Team Miron runners, walkers and volunteers we’ll see on race weekend!
