Break in those new tennis shoes, because Leadership Mecosta’s 5k Walk/Run is taking place on Saturday, Sept. 4, 2010! Held annually since Labor Day 2004 and coordinated each year by Dr. Jeff Mossel, the 5k Walk/Run draws more than 100 participants every year. And they’ve added a new twist! Participants can now compete in the “Bid Bad Wolf Adventure Race” by running, biking or canoeing. Because of the added adventure, they’ve changed the name of the Leadership Mecosta 5k Walk.Run to “Over the River and Through the Woods 5k Walk.Run” because the race follows along the Riverwalk through Big Rapids. Everyone is welcome to participate – whatever your ability! Stay tuned for more details at www.lm5k.org.
