Yes, this 5K is absolutely free! In lieu of a registration fee, we ask that participants make a donation to support our mission. With just $20, you can sponsor a family for a two-night stay at Ronald McDonald House, providing them with the comfort, support, and resources they need to stay strong for their child. Did you know the average length of stay for a family is seven nights? Your generosity ensures that families can focus on what matters most – being together.

 

This event isn’t just about running – it’s about community involvement and coming together to make a difference. Whether you’re a seasoned runner, a casual jogger, or just looking for a fun way to spend your weekend, this 5K is for you! Bring your family, rally your co-workers, and let’s show our support for families with seriously ill children. 

 

This St. Patrick's Day, wear your best green attire and run, jog, or walk your way to the finish line to help keep families close.
