Join us for Lori’s Voice: Pathways to Possibilities, a meaningful and family-friendly professionally timed 5K trail race co-hosted by Lori’s Voice and the City of Kentwood Parks and Recreation Department. The race begins at the Kentwood Community Center and guides participants along beautiful portions of Kentwood’s neighborhoods and trail system. People of all ages and abilities are encouraged to walk, roll, or run in support of an incredible cause.

All proceeds from the event will provide financial assistance to families of children under 21 living with neuromuscular and degenerative diseases. Funds help cover the cost of adaptive equipment, travel for medical care, therapies, and other essential needs not fully covered by insurance—giving kids the chance to move beyond restrictions and embrace new possibilities.

Whether you're racing for someone you love or stepping out in support of the mission, every stride you take helps build a brighter, more accessible future for children who deserve the chance to thrive.

Let’s create pathways to possibilities—together.

To guarantee a t-shirt, we kindly ask that participants register prior to Friday, September 18. Any registrations after September 18 will not guarantee a race t-shirt.
