From the Organizer
This event is being held to benefit LIV's Promise; a nonprofit organization created to fight childhood cancer. Our daughter, Olivia, was diagnosed with Neuroblastoma at 9 months old. She's a fighter and we are fighting alongside her. Proceeds from this event will go directly towards families and children who are battling an early cancer diagnosis. The event will be a 5k or 5-mile foot race. Athletes have the opportunity to run with OR without a Rucksack.
