About this race

19th annual OPC 5K family fun run/walk to benefit Meals on Wheels. The race begins and ends at the Older Persons' Commission (OPC) and travels along the picturesque Clinton River Trail and back.  All participants will receive an event T-shirt (must register by 5/9/2026), race bib, ticket to pancake breakfast, and post race snacks.

New this year, we’re launching peer-to-peer fundraising, which means you can help spread the mission. When you create your personal fundraising page, you can invite friends, family, and coworkers to support your walk or run. Every donation helps provide nutritious meals and vital wellness checks for homebound seniors, neighbors who rely on Meals on Wheels for both nourishment and connection.
