The 100 Yard New Balance Sprint!!!

This year we will continue with our 100 yard sprint tradition. At the end of the 5k there will be an additional 100 yard sprint. The fastest male & female for this portion will receive a free pair of New Balance running shoes. The 100 yard New Balance sprint will add a new competitive twist to our 5k. Awards will be presented to the 5k winners as well as the sprint winners. The 100 yard sprint is included in the race fee and is located at the end of the 5k. There will be an additional timing mat where the 5k ends and the 100 yard sprint begins.

Proceeds benefit the Jordan's Angel Foundation. Jordan’s Angel Foundation was established in memory of eight year old Jordan Richey and her seven year battle against leukemia. Throughout this experience we became aware that there were many families with children in pediatric oncology with unmet emotional and financial needs. We are a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting families of children with cancer and their special needs.
