Organiser's description

With the holidays just around the corner, there is no better way to celebrate the season than through spreading love, support and joy with your friends and family.

If you're looking to celebrate the season and don't mind lacing up your sneakers to hit the pavement, trail or treadmill, consider participating in the Run for Ryder Virtual 5k during the month of January.

Ryder Finkel and his family were caught off guard this fall when some concerning symptoms led them to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit. It was at that time that Ryder and his family learned he has a rare form of childhood brain cancer.

You never know when you'll be blindsided by something in life, but when it happens, it's the love of friends, family and community that helps to lift one another up and provide strength when it's needed.

This virtual event can be completed at anytime and anywhere between January 1st, 2024, thru January 31st, 2024.
