Join us for the 3rd annual She Runs The Fox 5k! This fun, noncompetitive, female-friendly run is a 3.1 mile run or walk along the beautiful Fox River. Join us as we come together for an evening of laughter, celebration and a run or walk. We encourage all women, regardless of athletic ability to join us on this evening. Your $15 (wow, cheap!) donation will go to our sponsored charity, Mutual Ground.
Mutual Ground is a shelter for women and children of domestic violence and sexual abuse. After your run or walk, join us for food, drink, and music, just our way of thanking you for making this a special evening.
Registration is now open! Register now!
