About this race

Julie's Pink Warrior Project provides free screening mammograms to the uninsured and underinsured in our community. Money raised from this race go directly to funding those free mammograms. 

This flat, fast race kicks off at 9am after an energizing warmup. This course is perfect for walkers and runners of all ages and abilities and is stroller friendly! Around the halfway point is a water station to hydrate you as you make your way to the finish line. Coming up the final stretch you will be greeted by cheers from spectators and fellow runners. You’ll receive a finishers medal after crossing the finish line and be able to refuel with the delicious post-race snacks!
