This “Do It Yourself” Event will enable you to run/walk at any time and in any location that is convenient for you. Run around the block, on trails, go down to the track (12.5 laps = 5K), or even run on a treadmill. You don’t even have to live in the Greater Forest City Metropolitan Area – so please invite friends and family both near and far to join the fun.
