Description: Big steps, little feet, sweet impact! Join local non-profit organization HONEY Bags Inc. at 9 AM on Saturday, April 18th for a 5k in Pleasant Valley with your family and friends. Participants can run or walk this 5k (road) course that begins at East Fairmont High School (EFHS). You will start on the EFHS campus then go downhill on Airport Road. You will then turn right at Crosswinds and run out then back to Airport Road past the municipal airport. You will turn left and loop around the Brickside Grille parking lot, then turn right and run Airport Road back to EFHS campus to finish. There will be rewards for the top 3 male and female finishers. We will post race results in appropriate age categories. Kids under 12 are more than welcome to register for the 5k, or they can run in the 800m Kids Fun Run at 8:30 am. This race is ~2.5 laps around the lower parking lot at EFHS. All proceeds of this event will go directly to HONEY Bags Inc. HONEY Bags is a non-profit organization that provides weekend food bags to school age children in our community. HONEY Bags is currently packing weekly bags for East Dale Elementary, East Fairmont Middle School, East Fairmont High Pre-School, and East Park Elementary. Many children rely on school meals during the week, and HONEY Bags' mission is to reach these kids and provide food for them to take home over the weekend. They are currently packing bags for ~260 kids for the 2025-2026 school year. HONEY Bags is proud to partner with the Marion County Running and Walking Club (MCRWC) and be the first race in their 2026 series!!
