Run for Your Life 5K
Color Fun Run
Bring your family and friends (including the furry ones) to a fun run/walk for a cause at our 6th annual Run For Your Life 5K Color Run! You can help us spread awareness about substance misuse in Alachua County and fundraise for our mission to provide substance use prevention services to youth and adults in our community.
The event will open with breakfast for participants, a warm-up session, and a Narcan demonstration. There will also be a community fair with plenty of resources from local organizations. During the fun run, there will be six powder stations, so be ready! At the end of the 5K, we will announce the raffle ticket winners and hand out medals. To conclude, we'll have an Instagram-worthy group photo!
