Organiser's Description

In honor of one of the best humans who ever lived, whose life was tragically cut short a week before her 35th birthday in 2015, please join us for the first annual Jodie Schmahl-Olson Memorial 5K. Jodie passed away on May 24, 2015, after a very short but courageous fight against Glioblastoma brain cancer. The first annual Jodie Schmahl-Olson Memorial 5K will hold place on Jodies 45th birthday, May 31, 2025, in downtown Two Harbors, MN, her hometown. Event proceeds to go to the Glioblastoma Foundation. This event is a run/walk. This event is non-chipped and no official times will be recorded during this first annual 5k... however, there WILL be a race clock at the finish line. Our main goal is to raise as much money as possible for the Glioblastoma Foundation.

SHIRTS: If you would like to order a shirt to wear on race day to support the memory of Jodie, you can order from https://jodie-schmahl-olson-memorial.myspreadshop.com/ Profits from shirt sales go to the Glioblastoma Foundation.
