Description

Join us for the second event in the Resurrection Life Community Race Series, proudly hosted by Resurrection Life Church of Big Rapids! This family-friendly event welcomes runners and walkers of all ages and abilities to come together for a day of fitness, fun, and community impact.

Whether you're chasing a personal best in the half marathon, enjoying a steady 10k, or walking the 5k with friends and family, this event is designed for everyone. Strollers, kids, seasoned runners, and first-timers are all encouraged to participate.

The race course will begin at Hemlock park pavilion - located behind the Big Rapids Middle School- and will follow the River walk trail to Northend Riverside park where 10K and half marathon participants will then run the White Pine trail south until looping to return to Hemlock.

The day will be filled with more than just running - stick around and enjoy:

All proceeds from the race will directly benefit Our Brother's Keeper, supporting vital services for individuals and families experiencing homelessness in our community.

If you feel led to go the extra mile, we invite you to consider making an additional donation to support the mission and ministry of Our Brother's Keeper. Your gift will help them expand efforts, support community programs, and continue sharing the hope and love of Jesus through events like this one.

No amount is too small—every dollar makes an impact!
