  ABOUT US: The FSU Medical Response Unit (MRU) is a basic life support / quick response unit that responds to all 911 medical calls on the main FSU campus during MRU hours of operation. The Unit is comprised of student volunteers and offers medical care (in conjunction with local EMS and other Public Service agencies) at the First Responder level free of charge to students, faculty, staff, & patrons of Florida State University. All proceeds of the race go toward maintaining the high standard of care the Medical Response Unit extends to the FSU community. Participants of all ages are welcome to come walk, run, and/or compete for some great prizes for our winners! Local first responder agencies will be joining us onsite so everyone can get a chance to get to know some of Tallahassee's wonderful public service personnel. We thank everyone who has continued to support our organization through our annual 5K and we look forward to seeing many new faces joining our upcoming event.

  Note: There are no refunds for race registration. In the event the race is canceled for weather or other reasons, alternate T-shirt, race packet pick-up, and raffle prize arrangements will be emailed to all registered runners
