Back2School 5K

The 7th running of the Back2School 5K is a benefit run for South Florence High School Cross Country Team. The team will use funds raised to cover meet expenses, purchase training items and gear.
We are excited this year that Kona Ice will be onsite to refresh you with some cool treats.
ProMotion Physical Therapy will provide race recovery
The course is fast and flat through the neighborhood adjacent to the YMCA.
WALK or RUN with us. Dogs are welcome as long as they are on a leash.
