EVENT

2020 has been a year full of surprises, reminding us that life is uncertain and fragile.  In a time of much uncertainty, many are evaluating their purpose in life.  The FMU Virtual Fun Run Race Series gives you a purpose by providing you with something to work towards, exercising while helping students.  It's a great feeling to be a part of something bigger than you, to give and receive support and motivation.  The FMU Virtual Holiday Fun Run Race Series will give you purpose, support, motivation and a community.
