The Run Home
About this race
Join us for our 6th Annual Walk Home at Boys Hope Girls Hope, a family-friendly event with options for everyone—a 5k run, a 1-mile fun walk, or a 1-mile fun run. No matter how you participate, it's going to be a fantastic day in the Garfield MetroParks, all in support of under-resourced pregnant and parenting women in our community!
Events like The Walk Home support the transformative work of Haven Home in the Slavic Village community. We will have raffle baskets, games for the kids, and post-race snacks and drinks. Can’t attend? Consider making a donation instead!
