Vision Event Management (VEM) strives to be the best running event management company in the United States, producing the highest quality events that not only set the standard for event production, but also set the trend for the industry.
Event planning requires foresight, follow through and attention to detail. You need to see the big picture as well as the tiniest of details. You need Vision. Which is why we started Vision Event Management. We wanted to create a company with the experience, skills and knowledge to help any event, no matter how large or how small, fulfill its ultimate potential. We can help fledgling events get off the ground and existing events soar. We’re flexible, fast, responsive and reliable. And we always bring a fresh perspective. No matter what stage of the planning you’re in, we’d welcome the opportunity to help you make your event the best it can be.
We ask that all registrants certify that they will comply with the current CDC Guidelines and other directives from the Governor of their respective state in participating and completing their half marathon. Our strong advice is to "RUN ALONE" or with your immediate family members. We all need to do our part to "stop the spread". Be safe and do your part.
Here are some ways to be safe and still get your workout, training or half marathon completed:
RUN ALONE! We'll have plenty of opportunities to run in groups when this is all over. If you do run with a partner maintain 6 feet or more distance at all times.
Use common sense about where you run and when you run. Going to run 8 miles in a busy park on a nice Saturday morning probably isn't your best choice. You may need to change up when you run and where you run.
Vary your routes. This is a great opportunity to switch things up, just be sure that you are running in a safe area with wide paths, roadway or trails.
Be aware of your surroundings. We are all vying for some of the same space when we are out exercising. Be courteous of others and providing plenty of room when you pass. Crossing the street when possible is a great strategy.
Consider more workouts from home. Lots of great things are happening with technology, online classes and exercise instruction.
