The folks who put on the Love ‘Em or Leave ‘Em Valentine’s Fun Run around Greenlake in February have another run coming up this Friday, the Fremont 5K and Briefcase Relay. Another dress-up event, this one asks participants to carry 5 cans of food in their briefcase, which get donated to Wallingford’s Solid Ground at the end of the race:
Race Day Schedule
5:00pm: Race-Day Registration & Packet Pickup
5:45pm: Team Briefcase Relay Inspection
6:00pm: Team Briefcase Relay Starts
6:00pm: Beer Garden Opens
7:00pm: 5K Run/Walk Starts
8:00pm: Awards Ceremony & Celebration
Things kick-off just north of the Fremont Bridge near the intersection of N 34th Street & Fremont Avenue.
Just to clarify: While the Fremont Fun Run does provide some benefit to Solid Ground to support our programs, the cans of food folks are aked to bring in their Briefcase Relay briefcases will go directly to the FamilyWorks food bank, which, as loyal Wallyhood readers know, serves hungry folks in our neighborhood.
