Support MDA @ the 4th Annual Henry's Thanksgiving Day Hustle 5K Run/Walk & Kids Dash

Make this local timed 5K a family "Turkey Day" tradition by registering here: https://www.signmeup.com/site/online-event-registration/111669

Join us for this 3rd annual race benefiting the Muscular Dystrophy Association in honor of our friend, Henry Betts! We are collecting monetary donations for the Muscular Dystrophy Association (proceeds from entry fees also go to MDA) and non-perishable food items for the Algonquin Lake in the Hills Interfaith Food Pantry! This year’s race will feature pre- and post-race festivities INDOORS at Marlowe Middle School! Before and after the race you can enjoy music, food, and drinks without shivering! Day-of registration and packet pick-up is available from 6:30-8:00am, and all registrants as of October 31st at midnight will be guaranteed t-shirt sizing. This fun run / walk will NOT be chip timed, however, we will have unofficial race timing in the form of a race clock at the finish line and volunteers with stop watches at mile markers. We will offer a chip-timed race in future years and hope that you will make this race a tradition for you and your family!
