I love participating in this race. It's family friendly, well run and a nice flat course. Love to support Mission Africa in it's goals to help the medical team with their mission trips. My husband has been a course monitor for a couple years and has enjoyed getting out there as well.

This is a fun event for a great cause. The course is flat and well-marked. Both the start and finish are well organized. And, the cause is great.
Lots of friendly people to talk to on course. It makes the time and miles go fast. (Even if I don't go fast)

It's never too late to do a 5K! I'm 83 and this was my first. I may have finished last but I felt like I won first place. The location was cool, beautiful park. Helping Victor and Mission Africa made it very rewarding.
