About this race

Bundle up and join us for the Cold for a Cause 5K, a winter race with a warm mission!

On February 27, runners and walkers of all ages and abilities will gather at Sarg Hubbard Park to brave the cold, get moving, and make a difference in the lives of our neighbors experiencing homelessness.
