GTD - Go The Distance 5K Fun Run/Walk and Kids Dash

❤️🏃 Our mission: To build self-esteem, establish support systems, and empower recovery one run at a time. 

Go the Distance is a nonprofit organization that advocates for recovery through fitness, community, and compassion. Proceeds from this event will help empower more people in early recovery and support Go the Distance’s impact on our community members.
