The Andrea Rose Teodosio 5k Run/ 1 Mile Walk Memorial Race

Join us in person for the 12th Annual Andrea Rose Teodosio Memorial 5k Run/1-mile walk on Saturday, July 8, 2023, and help us as we celebrate the life of Andrea on what would have been her 35th birthday!  Andrea was a bright, energetic, and motivated young woman of twenty-two when her life was lost in a skiing accident at Snowshoe Mountain in West Virginia. Despite this tragic loss, the spirit of Andrea’s love of life, caring for others -particularly the elderly and children- and kindness, lives on through the efforts of The Andrea Rose Teodosio Foundation.  Listed in Akron Life Magazine as one of the best 5K events in the Akron area, this run or walk has been built on the tradition of community support.   

Running this mostly flat course through Downtown Akron allows participants to enjoy the route along Main Street to the Lock 3 Towpath.  For our runners who prefer to run on their own, we will again offer the option to run the event virtually- but we hope to see you at Lock 3 again this year in person to celebrate the life of Andrea.  Virtual Runners can register anytime between now and July 8th, 2023. 

And join us after the run at Missing Mountain at 2811 Front Street in Cuyahoga Falls beginning at 10 am for a great after-party where we will celebrate Andrea's 35th birthday and enjoy some time together.  Missing Mountain will open early at 10 am for us on the 8th so we can head over there from the run.

If you would like to donate to the Foundation by mail rather than online, please address your donation to The Andrea Rose Teodosio Foundation, PO Box 109, Munroe Falls, Ohio 44262.

Hope to see you on July 8th!  Thank you for your support.
