From the Organizer

A family friendly Fort Wayne Running Club fitness event and Breakfast Picnic is returning for you!  Everyone is welcome.

Come join us Saturday morning June 5th for a morning run/walk commemorating FWRC member J.P. Jones at Foster Park. Run and/or walk in memory of J.P. and other fabulous runners/walkers who were in your life.  All finishers will get Sweet Life Honey Farm honey !!

Day of registration and pre-registered packet pick up/check in will be at Foster Park Pavilion #1 7:00 am - 8:00 am. 

The 10km and 3.3 km begin at 8:00 am.

Bring a gift so we can give gifts to others!!  Yes, please bring a gift wrapped t-shirt (s) which will be donated to individuals at local organizations like Wellspring Interfaith Social Services and Adult Life Day Academy.  Mark t-shirt size on each one. Bring as many wrapped t-shirts (new or very close to new) as you would like. It's a great way to let go of new t-shirts you really don't want.
