Race Proceeds
The proceeds from the 2024 race will be going to the Carr family and their little blessing Virginia. Virginia was born 5 weeks premature on January 9th, 2024 and was diagnosed with a rare kidney disease. Her parents Joe and Paige fought diligently to provide her with the best care at Golisano's Children's and Boston Children's Hospitals. Unfortunetly Virginia passed away on April 8th, 2024. She is deeply missed by her parents and big brother Zion, as well as her extended family and a multitude of Church family and friends. Proceeds will be going to help defray Virginia's medical and funeral expenses.
There are no registration refunds, all proceeds will be donated to help support a specific family in need, the Golisano Children's Hospital Financial Fund, and the CCHS Daniel Myslivecek Scholarship.
Thank you for your support!
Description
This 5K race is in remembrance of Daniel Myslivecek, who lost his battle with Melanoma at the age of 16. A friend of Daniel's organized the first 5K in 2005 to help the family with medical costs. Daniel ran in that first race and died 4 months later from his illness. The 5K has continued with the support of our community and each year the proceeds are given to a family or organization that helps children with a life-threatening illness while heightening Melanoma awareness.
