Saturday, July 15th
Click Here for Video from our Inaugural Race
Get off the hot beaten pavement and come spend a beautiful July morning running or walking the serene trails at Still Family Farm, right outside Atlanta GA, in support of The Fibroid Pandemic's 2nd Annual Run F.A.R. 5K run/Walk for FIBROID AWARENESS & RESOURCES. The award ceremony will be held immediately following the 5K. The Run F.A.R. 5K was created to help humans with a uterus make informed decisions as they embark on their journey to healing uterine fibroids. Your support of our event will help raise funds to provide education on the available resources to overcome uterine fibroids. A portion of the proceeds will go to Pad the Pandemic, a 501(c)3 nonprofit developed with the vision to help eliminate period poverty and unnecessary hysterectomies.
