About the Event

Jenny Burroughs was in a serious accident in June of 2017 where she lives in Pittsburgh, PA. Jenny suffered 3rd degree burns over 30% of her body, multiple broken bones, lacerations, & severe head trauma, including brain hemorrhaging, and a blood clot in the brain. From third party accounts, it's been said Pittsburgh Police put the homicide department on the case not expecting her to live. Five months, and more than a dozen surgeries, including multiple skin grafts, Jen was finally released from her 4th hospital.

During her multiple hospital stays there was a tremendous amount of support given to Jenny and her husband Greg from friends and family alike. After this experience ,Jenny, returning to her running roots, decided to organize a 5K race each year and donate the money to local families experiencing similar medical hardships in the Fremont, OH area, her hometown.

About Fremont

Learn more about the host city, Fremont.

Fremont is a city in Ohio Erie shore west. It is the county seat of Sandusky County. Although Fremont has a rich, historic history, today many visitors come to Fremont to wade in and fish the Sandusky River. This is especially true at spawning time, when the river and banks are loaded with fishermen and State Wildlife Inspectors. Fremont is a beautiful city, with well maintained residential neighborhoods. Due to the location, it is a destination for those who enjoy Lake Erie and would prefer to be a bit away from the lake front and the little bit faster pace of life.
