We are very excited to offer the in-person Rage Against Addiction Memory Walk/Recovery Run again this year!

We will gather on Saturday, April 13th at Cedar Lane Regional Park for this family-friendly event.  We will have various resources/speakers come out to share their knowledge and support services.

All registrants will receive a race number.  Please wear this number on the outer-most layer at the front of your torso. 
The 5K event will be chip-timed while the 1 Mile event is untimed.  Look for your 5K results after the event on the results tab of this page.

During the event, the park will remain open to the public and park rules apply.  This includes keeping the park clean by utilizing trash receptacles and all dogs must be leashed and cleaned up after.  Strollers are welcome, we ask that they line up towards the back of the start corral.  This is a two-loop course, so please stay to the right and allow for passing on the left.
