So much fun! beautiful course.
This is my second year running this race for a cause I believe in completely. Thanks for making this possible for us to support.
has attended 2 times
This will be my third year running this race. It's well organized and I come to support all the women in my life who have been affected by sexual assault. The after party holds lots of information plus great music and food. Looking forward to it again
My friends and I have done this race since it's inception. It gets better every year. Its also a sanctioned race for my competitive running friends. The booths and food trucks are great and the one billion rising flash Mob all come together to raise funds and awareness for utah coalition against sexual assault. We have already made plans for an even bigger group to participate this year (2017) plus the t shirts are the type you will wear over again. Can't wait!!!
Wonderful cause! Beautiful venue! Enthusiastic group! Love these girls who believe in this and are so dedicated to what they do. This 5K is the best--run it or walk it. Beautiful course. So much going on after. Plus Waffle Love is there. Don't miss it!
I actually like to stay after at this run. They have made the after party so fun. Last year they had a booth that had one on one self dense trainings. I felt accomplished after the run but the self defense made me feel like a bad ass.
This event keeps getting bigger. I have run every year and am so impressed, looking forward to what this year holds. Cool to meet Kim Fischer last year too.
This run is great opportunity to learn about sexual assault awareness and what you can actually do to help end it. They partner with Start By Believing, Talk to a survivor, the clothes line project, and other prominent figures in the community working on this cause.
Running this event has been the highlight of my week each year! It's such a great time and absolutely a can't miss!!
Not only is this a fun run but its also an amazing event. There are so many resources for survivors of sexual assault and allies. Many outlets for them to be heard and express themselves. Also a lot of information if you interested in learning what you can personally do to help end sexual assault. Lots of Love goes into this event and lots of loved is expressed.
