Goodness, no! We know not everyone enjoys running. You can run, jog, walk, skip or hop your way to the finish line! It’s not about crossing the finish line first; it’s about being active, having fun and standing up for a cause.

Dress comfortably and in running gear/sneakers! It will be fall, so the weather may be a little chilly. 

This event is for everyone – of all ages and abilities. Feel free to bring strollers for young children/babies - the course is paved.
