About the Run 2 End Hunger
This is a Thanksgiving morning fun run with no bibs, no official timing, and no pressure. The courses follow paved pathways through Valley View and along the Eagle trail, routes the Utica Roadrunners use for their regular weekly runs, so the ground is familiar and the terrain is accessible. Dogs are welcome.
Registration opens early Thanksgiving morning inside the gymnasium at the Utica Recreation Center on Memorial Parkway, well before the start. Entry is cash or online, and each participant is asked to bring nonperishable food items. All proceeds go directly to local food pantries, with the Sunrise Rotary Club on hand to collect donations.
