RACES FOR THE REST OF US
Why offer a series of events “for the rest of us”? Because there are plenty of 5 and 10K’s out there. Running a marathon is an awesome accomplishment, but it’s not for everybody. Advent Health & Wellness believes that an event should be tough, but also so functional and fun that you want to do it again… tomorrow, not next year. Our events range from 2K treks to 2.2mile dashes - that remind you of what running felt like when you were simply running to explore. You will frequently stop and do something fun. It might be a challenging obstacle, but you will like it, and remember it, and even tell your friends about it. RACES FOR THE REST OF US is an awesome way for adults and kids to get outside, do a little running, and experience some competition that is more about challenging yourself – than beating that person in front of you. Who knows, you may even lend them a helping hand.
