Join Us for the 4th Annual Live. Love. Thrive. 5K Run & 2.5K Walk!

Make this Labor Day truly meaningful by participating in the Live. Love. Thrive. 5K Run & 2.5 Walk on Monday, September 7th at the stunning Munroe Falls Metro Park! Our 5K chip timed run will start at 9:15am while the 2.5K untimed walk will begin at 8:30am.

Hosted by Linc Worldwide, a Stow, Ohio-based nonprofit, this event helps us raise crucial funds for our new faith-based school in Kenya, providing orphaned and impoverished children with food, water, access to medical care and a strong education.

Choose between our 5K Run or 2.5K Walk, perfect for all ages and abilities. Can't join in person? Register as a virtual participant and support the cause from anywhere!

Enjoy a fun, family-friendly atmosphere as you make your way around the park’s scenic, tree-lined lake—all while making a lasting impact on young lives.

    • It's a great course for strollers and our four-legged friends.

    • Everyone will get an amazing custom tech shirt and custom finishers medal

    • We'll have plenty of treats to enjoy at the finish line.

    • Live DJ music.

    We will celebrate all paces by giving out awards to our speedier guests and then cheering on those finishing later. We'll also have some fun team competitions for the hairiest and largest.

    under 10, 10-14, 15-19, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69, 70-79, 80+
