Sarah Elizabeth Shelton Legacy Project 5K & Fun Run

On December 12, runners gather at Flowood Nature Park for the CF-MS 5K Race and Fun Run, honoring Sarah Elizabeth Shelton's legacy of resilience and compassion. The race begins early with registration starting at 7 AM, followed by a moving ceremony to remember Shelton’s journey from high school cheerleader to special care nurse at Le Bonheur Children's Hospital. Participants will navigate scenic trails in Flowood Nature Park before crossing the finish line to support cystic fibrosis research and patient services through donations to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation of Mississippi. Join this meaningful event to celebrate Shelton’s impact and raise funds for those affected by CF.
Runners should arrive early, as the 5K starts at 8 AM with a fun run scheduled for 9 AM, offering both competitive racers and casual runners an opportunity to contribute to a worthy cause on this inspiring day.
