Megan’s Mission annual 5K Run/Walk - 2023

The Megan’s Mission annual 5K Run/Walk was another great event! Held in Coal City where Megan grew up, the community showed their support for Megan and children everywhere going through childhood cancer. The race had a total of 318 runners with 27 of them being virtual runners from all over the world.  A “Megan’s Favorite Things” basket was raffled off and raised over $1,200! A big thank you goes out to the Village of Coal City and Babes Tap for all of their support hosting this event. We are already planning and looking forward to next year’s race!
