The goal of the Opportunity Enterprises Popcorn Panic Team is to train runners with little or no experience to complete the Popcorn Panic 5 mile race in September of each year.

Training begins in June, with group runs leaving from OE on Tuesday and Thursday evenings and Saturday mornings. Training is led by an experienced Training Coordinator who teaches the walk/run training method. Other benefits of participation include a team shirt, free race entry for the Popcorn Panic race, team support and encouragement, and prizes for top fundraisers.

In exchange for these benefits, team members are asked to pay a small registration fee when they join, and raise an additional minimum amount of money to be submitted before race day. For more information, contact Chris Schneidt (christene.schneidt@oppent.org) or Allison Thomas (allison.thomas@oppent.org).
