About the Event

 

We are excited to host our 9th Annual 5K Run & 1 Mile Walk on Sunday, June 14. We hope you'll join us for this day of running, walking, and celebrating the healing power of community, as we continue to honor the memory of the founder of this event, Brian Vitale. The course for in-person participants begins and ends at Rockefeller Lagoon and winds through the Cleveland Cultural Gardens. A virtual option is also available.
