Parma Run-Walk for Pierogies

In 2022,  the Parma Run-Walk for Pierogies will turn eleven years old!  Once again, many charities and community projects will be recipients of the proceeds.  Guaranteed to the first 600 participants: a well-stuffed goodie bag, our signature t-shirt, and a certificate for free pierogies courtesy of Parma’s own Perla Pierogies.  We will also have icey, wet towels to cool you off right after the finish line.  The top three women and men in our many age categories will win our famous pierogie necklace award.  Our event takes place on the very flat Tri-C West Campus conveniently located at 11000 West Pleasant Valley Road.  We hope you will join us on Saturday, June 25.

Contact Parma City Council President and Race Director Sean Patrick Brennan for questions, sponsorships, etc. at pierogie5k@gmail.com or 567-309-0318.
