Description

OhioGuidestone's biennial Promise Run is back at Wallace Lake!

Join us in a 5k, 10k, or 1-mile run/walk to benefit the individuals OhioGuidestone serves. Each registered participant will receive a run bag with a Promise Run t-shirt and a complimentary smoothie following the race. Plan to stick around for some "Post-Run Fun" - re-energize with delicious food from local food trucks, check out some artisan vendor booths, and enjoy family-friendly jams!  Awards will be presented to the top performers in multiple categories (see Awards section below). Get a group together, bring the whole family (pets included!), or come solo - we can't wait to see you once again at Wallace Lake!

 

Why we run:

We run for those who are forging new life paths with the help of OhioGuidestone. We run because we are committed to mental health and well-being. We run because our programs are the keys to surviving — to thriving. We run because every success story began with a first step.
