We are excited and honored to have Rachel Corey leading our Mile run this year! Corey is an elite athlete with many amazing races under her belt and more to come.  She was hit by a car while training for the Ironman World Championships in Kona, Hawaii. Her strength, determination and hard work to overcome her injuries is an inspiration for all. Sign up and be inspired! We would love to see “All Abilities” out for the Mile Run!
