Run race at your pace, in support of people with developmental disabilities

NEW LENOX, IL — Though runners cannot be together in person this year, Trinity Services, Inc. is encouraging people to run at their own pace through participation in the Virtual Trinity Triumph 5K between July 16-30.

The virtual race benefits people with developmental disabilities and mental illness who receive support from Trinity Services.

Runners and walkers may compete the full 5K, or a 1K walk, anytime between July 16-30, anywhere they choose. Registrants will be mailed a race T-shirt, with the phrase, “If it doesn’t challenge you, it doesn’t change you.”
