From the Organizer
It's the second annual 5k run/walk to support Grainger County Cancer Connect. The proceeds for this run will go to benefit those battling a cancer diagnosis within Grainger County. Last year the community showed up and showed out to support Grainger County Cancer Connect with over 220 registered walkers and runners. We are looking to surpass this amount and know our community does it best! This event is open to all ages and all runners and walkers. We will have a kid's mile this year and encourage all kids to come out and get moving to support those battling a cancer diagnosis. Cancer affects all age groups, and we are seeing this significantly rise in our community over the last few years. Come be a part of a great cause and support those that are fighting this disease. What a perfect way to make change happen in our small rural community. This race is 3.16 miles and is a timed race by Raceday events.
