Get Involved with the Race to Empower 5k and One Mile Fun Run on May 3, 2015!

One month from today on Sunday, May 1, UCP of Greater Cleveland will hold its fourth annual Race to Empower 5k and One Mile Fun Run, presented by Medical Mutual! We invite everyone to support UCP in the way that best suits them – whether that be by racing or fundraising. We hope to see you all on May 1st!

RACE!

The race will start and end at UCP of Greater Cleveland’s Headquarters (10011 Euclid Avenue) after passing along the edge of University Circle through Rockefeller Park and the Cleveland Cultural Gardens. The Race to Empower strives to be an all-inclusive race, which is why we offer both a 5k and One Mile option. As a racer, not only will you be able to achieve your own personal goals, but you will also be helping to increase awareness for UCP of Greater Cleveland and the 1,000 individuals we serve every year. All paid participants who register by April 15th will receive a customized Race to Empower long sleeve t-shirt. To register, go to www.hermescleveland.com/roadracing/events/empower.asp.

• Pre-Registration -$25
  • Mail-in entries must be received by Wednesday, April 27
  • Online Registration closes at 9:00 AM on Friday, April 29
• Race Day Registration – $30 (cash/check only)

FUNDRAISE!

Our Race to Empower fundraising goal this year is $33,000! Anyone can fundraise regardless of whether or not they are racing. All dollars raised will directly benefit over 1,000 individuals and families right here in Northeast Ohio.
