Walnut Run to Benefit Walnut Creek Schools

Lace up your running shoes for the 2015 Walnut Run on Sunday, September 13 at 8:00 a.m. The annual run, powered by Hall Equities Group, includes a 5K, 10K, a free Kids Fun Run and photo booth. Runners in costume are encouraged.

Net proceeds from this year’s race, which starts at 1201 Main Street, will benefit Walnut Creek schools, the Walnut Creek Education Foundation (WCEF) and Partners for Educational Achievement in K- 12 (P.E.A.K). Proceeds from the race are distributed by the percentage of affiliated participants from each school. The more runners from a school, the larger percentage of funds earned. This is the second year that proceeds from the race will benefit school children in the City of Walnut Creek. In 2014, The Walnut Run donated $8,000.

Registration is $25-$35. The Kids Fun Run is free. Registration is available online. Same day registration tables open at 6:00 a.m.
