Live Your Best Life 5K
Terry True-Blood recreation area is the perfect place for a run! Please register here for the proper 5K event. Every registration comes with our swag bag, and automatic entry to our after party, sensory walk areas, and a whole lot of fun. This run will be professionally timed as well so you get a full race bib and will have an official running time posted on the website!
Live Your Best Life VIRTUAL 5k
Run our event anywhere in the world! We know you’re busy, but you know a good cause when you see one. So even if you can’t join us on race day we’d love for you to be part of the fun! Many of the people we serve at Systems Unlimited work hard towards the goal of accomplishing a 5K for months leading up to the event, but can’t always get here the day of the race and we wanted to open the opportunity to the community as well! We encourage you to blow some bubbles while you are at it, wear a jingling necklace, or light up shoes and send pictures of yourself also enjoying something that stimulates the senses in the spirit of our sensory stations! Our 5k packet includes everything you need to have an amazing virtual event. Items included: - Race Shirt - Race Bib - Finisher Medal
Walking

Stationed throughout our 1-mile walk there will be sensory stations to experience and enjoy. - Scented Bubble Station - Light Tunnel - Foam Station - Music Stations - and more!
