2025 Event Day Things To Know

The 5K is more than a run — it’s a party of hope. We love seeing friends, families, co-workers, and neighbors come together for a great time and a great cause.

  • Park in the Arps Garage and make your way south to Hayes Hall for registration.

  • Race start lines up right outside of Hayes Hall. We’ll share some announcements and send off the runners and walkers right at 10am!

  • The Fun Run and Walk will start at the 5K FINISH line — right outside of Thompson Library.

  • We’ll have lots of games for kids and adults alike, along with some great post-race snacks and a live DJ keeping the vibes going.

Since 2023, we have raised more than $151,000 for Zellweger Spectrum Disorder.
