  Come join us for Annual Celebration of Life 5K in Honor of Sydney Claire Sutherland. We will come together to celebrate and honor her incredible life. We will FINISH SYDNEY'S RUN because she was denied that opportunity. Sydney loved running. She loved all things fitness. From working out to just getting a quick run, jog or walk in during the day, she enjoyed it all! We hope that you enjoy this event whether you are running, walking, jogging or pushing strollers. Whether you are attending this run as a competitor or just as a finisher, we thank you!

  All proceeds will go directly to the Sydney Claire Sutherland Foundation. Sydney made an impact on everyone she met. She was a beautiful person inside and out. She devoted her life to helping others and continues to touch lives through her scholarship which assists students seeking a career in nursing.

  We run for Sydney.

  We run in her honor.

  We run in her memory.

  We run for change.

  We will keep putting one foot in front of the other until we can catch up with you, Sydney.

  Location: 200 West Main Street, Tuckerman, AR

  Run/Walk: $35 (t-shirt included with registration fee if signed up before Sept. 14)
