From the Organizer

Join us on Sunday, April 25, 2027 for the 8th annual Izzo Run/Walk/Roll!

The Izzo Legacy is proud to host this premier experience on the campus of Michigan State University. The mission is to bring together MSU alumni and communities from all across the state and beyond in a shared commitment to giving back, supporting meaningful causes, and building a lasting legacy of service. The events include a 5K Run/Walk, 5K Roll, 1/2 K Walk/Roll, Kids Races, and a Virtual 5K; all centered on fitness, fun, family, Spartan spirit, and the power of charitable impact.

Proceeds from the 2027 Izzo Run/Walk/Roll will support charity partners and an endowment for The Izzo Legacy that will ensure charitable giving for years to come. In addition, participants can donate to select local charities through the registration process or on the donation page

"Tom and I have certainly been blessed to be a part of this community and we feel a genuine obligation to give back to the MSU and Mid-Michigan communities that have become such a large part of our lives. One of the reasons we’ve never left Michigan State is the connection to our community."

~ Lupe Izzo
