Come join us for the 11th Annual Building Healthy Communities 5K Run/Walk & Wellness Expo. The 5K run/walk will raise funds to benefit the MUSC Children's Health Wellness Works Program. Come run or walk a USATF-certified 5K course to help us in our work of supporting healthy lifestyle habits for kids and their families. We also have a lot of exciting raffle prizes to offer, so bring cash or a card to purchase raffle tickets and participate in the drawing after the race (no checks will be accepted).
Your registration fee includes a t-shirt, a race packet with exciting freebies, water, and healthy snacks. We also offer official timing and overall/age-group awards (three deep)! A finisher's medal will be given to all who complete the entire 5K course. The Wellness Expo, day-of registration, and on-site packet pick-up begin at 8:00 am, mandatory pre-race meeting is at 8:45 am, group warm-up kicks off at 8:50 am, and the run/walk starts at 9:00 am. The finish-line party including food truck (food for purchase), Wellness Expo, prize raffle, age-group awards, and healthy snacks will follow!
You do not have to be a paid and registered participant to enjoy the Wellness Expo and raffle--everyone is welcome. Please come and enjoy the Expo - healthy snacks and portable toilets will be available at the event for your convenience.
MUSC Children's Health Wellness Works program is a wellness/weight management program and lipid treatment clinic for kids and teens. We work with kids and their families to promote healthy habits through individualized clinic visits, group education sessions, and a fitness program. We have had fantastic success and we currently have over 500 families enrolled from the greater Charleston area! Since we are a non-profit program, we rely heavily on fundraising events that also promote our healthy message through exercise and health promotion.
