Description

This purpose of this race is to bring together the hospital and community and to highlight heart month. We want to emphasize health, wellness, and the importance of heart health. We want to increase awareness of the heart related services available at our facility. We hope that this race will become an annual community event! We will have providers on site to speak with you on race day! All proceeds benefit the Lenoir Memorial Foundation. Additionally, runners are encouraged to run in honor of someone dealing with heart related diagnoses or in memory of someone lost to heart related diagnoses.
