Organiser's Description

CELEBRATE 15 years and 500 WISHES with our 7k run or 1.5 mile walk! Join us at MERCYHEALTH SPORTSCORE TWO (INDOOR SPORTS CENTER) for this year's race followed by a fun indoor afterparty and Grammy's Auction!

Bring JOY to young adults, and their families, fighting cancer. Most pediatric support programs age out at 18 and adult programs start at 25 leaving a gap for young adults. Our mission is to bridge that gap and deliver joy to young adults aged 18-24 battling cancer!
