From the Organizer
Join us for a community 5k run/walk to honor Ahlyza and other women fighting Metastatic Breast Cancer. This family-friendly event welcomes runners and walkers of all levels. Participants can choose to run, jog, or walk in the 5K course while coming together to honor strength, resilience, and hope.
After the run, join us for a post race celebration featuring music, food truck vendors, and opportunities to donate or support the cause-even if you are not participating in the run. Net proceeds go towards a charity of Ahlyza's choice along with families affected by breast cancer.
This is a non-competitive community run/walk. Small prizes will be awarded to the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd overall finishers.
**IMPORTANT NOTICE**
Please plan to arrive by 9am to park in LOT C, Knob Hill Pavilion.
Colonial Drive will be closed by 9:50am for the race and will open after the race.
