From the Organizer
The 6th annual Race For Catherine fundraiser is here! No matter the age, no matter the place, no matter the speed, this is the “5K for Kindness” for EVERYONE.
Join us in person on October 11th for a family friendly certified and timed run/walk unlike any other. Cuddle with the adoptable animals, meet the rescued animal ambassadors waiting for you at the finish and indulge with a free breakfast post race on us! And don’t forget about our NEW “Kids For Kindness” Dash for our littlest do-gooders aged 3-9.
Not local? Not a problem! Virtual friends can join in any time, any place from October 9-11th. Join our worldwide community of walkers and runners by creating a team, exercising with your favorite four-legged friend or just taking some time to build a healthier YOU. And with the RaceJoy app, family and friends can follow, join, or complete from afar.
