Proceeds from the race will go to support the Michigan Running Foundation Kids run for $5 program. We are partnering with races across Michigan to help them offer a $5 entry fee for kids 18 and under. The Foundation pays the race $10 per entry for every 18 and under participant. This will make it possible for the race to offer a $5 entry fee for kids. We hope this makes it possible for families to sign up their kids to run with them and encourages young people to stay fit and run races at a very inexpensive race fee of $5.
