Smokefree Dakota 5K - You can run with us for free!

created on: 05/01/09

Hey Guys, the whole Catalyst staff will be running this. It's put on by Catalyst regular Diane Tran. If you want to run it, Catalyst will gladly pay your entrance fee!

Also I plan on beating Holly, and winning the 5K, just so that's on the table.

 

Join Smoke-Free Dakota for the World No Tobacco Day 5K Run on Sunday, May 31, 2009! The run will benefit low-income children with persistent asthma to attend Camp SuperKids 2009, a weeklong summer camp sponsored by the American Lung Association in Minnesota. Asthma is the leading serious chronic illness in children in the U.S. and is the number one cause of student absences related to chronic conditions. Campers will learn to better manage their asthma and gain confidence through building relationships with their peers to ensure a future of better health!

The USATF-certified 5K Run (MN-09010-RR) will start at the eastern end (in Lilydale) of the Big Rivers Regional Trail, a nearly flat paved trail built on an abandoned railroad bed overlooking the confluence of the Minnesota and Mississppi Rivers.
