Special Gift for Our First 50!


The first 50 participants who pre-register online will receive a FREE copy of Pastor James Greer’s new
book, CANCER: Prayer of Hope, a source of encouragement for those walking through the cancer journey.
Filled with powerful prayers, Scripture, and words of hope, this book is designed to remind you that you are
not alone and to help strengthen your faith as you seek God through every step of the journey toward healing.

Come run in honor of someone you love, in memory of someone we've lost, or simply to help raise awareness
