Inspiration Run 2012

The Inspiration 5K Fun Run/Walk is a unique event. Part fundraiser/part Huron Parks & Recreation program, this event inspires us at Parks & Recreation year after year! The Inspiration Run is a non-competitive event that draws family, friends, and groups who come to support the cause, or just use the event as a kick-off of their own inspiration to live a healthier lifestyle. We see many families who make it a “family day” by participating in the run and then planning a family picnic in the park afterwards. Local businesses contribute as well by donating water, fruit & snacks for our participants; and volunteers help out at water stations and registration.

The 2012 Inspiration run will honor the 10 year anniversary of the passing of Ryan Foss and Michelle Saunders; the inspiration for the Inspiration Run.  Fifity percent of the proceeds will go directly to the Foss-Saunders Memorial Scholarship Fund.

Date: Sunday, June 24th @Fabens Park
Check-in/Registration from 11:00am-11:45am. Run starts at 12:00pm.
Registration Fee $10.
