Global Running Day is our holiday; a celebration of the activity we love and the sport that brings our community together. We’re inviting all runners and walkers to join us on June 5th to mark the occasion, set a goal and cross the finish line. 
Join us for an in-person 5K (route below!) fun run and walk on Wednesday, June 3th at 6 PM.  The run will take place from the Fleet Feet in West Lafayette and you will finish at the store. Then the post race party will continue at the store. We will have post run/walk food and snow cones!
The first 75 people to register will be guaranteed to receive a T shirt, sizes are limited so sign up to get your shirt!
 
We encourage participants to stick around and continue the celebration with others from the community!  Cool off with a snow cone and celebrate Global Running Day with us! Don't miss out on the fun!
