Our hearts ache for what is going on in Ukraine and humanity on a whole.
What's the least we can do? Of course, show solidarity. Beyond that, Ukraine needs financial support in countless ways.
The concept of this run is simple:
(1) Register for free (below).
No money will go towards this event nor will we act as a middle-man.
(2) Donate to a Ukraine-focused charity of your choice.
This is mandatory to participate, but will not be checked.
Fill out our survey anonymously stating the charity you donated to along with the amount so we can release some stats after the event.
(4) Find your best yellow/blue ensemble to show solidarity.
(3) Show up at the start line at 9AM on March 19th.
Get your yellow arm band from us, and then race, jog or walk the 5K course!
Start line: Silver Lake Bridge on the Laurel Trail just off of Father David Bauer Drive.
