Event Description

Lake Region Fitness presents a fundraiser 5k walk/run on August 14th, 2021. This is will be the first of many yearly "Runs" LRF hosts. Each year the proceeds will be donated to a different cause.

As many of you know there was a fatal vehicle/motorcycle accident in 2010. Devils Lake resident, Jason Hunter, had to get his leg amputated. It has now been 11 years since the accident and Jason is in need of a new prosthetic, except his insurance is denying it. North Dakota is one of only a few states who lacks in insurance laws that protect amputees. The Hunter Family has been fighting their case with the insurance, but the wait without a fitting prosthetic can potentially force Jason to be wheelchair bound full-time. Please help a local resident keep his day to day life, by participating in this event. All proceeds will be donated to the Hunter Family to help assist in the expenses of a new prosthetic.  

The race will take place in the City Plaza parking lot. PARENTS! If you would like to ru/walk but don't have anyone to watch the kiddos, we will have a bounce house and coloring station for kids. There will be a cookout at the end of the race, if you are not wanting to participate but would like to come make a donation and support the cause, you are more than welcome!!

Please call Lake Region Fitness with any questions!

We look forward to seeing you!
