About the WAI Wheels Down South 5K Walk / Run
This is a fundraiser for aviation scholarships, put on by an Atlanta-area chapter of a women-in-aviation nonprofit. The course is untimed, and runners set their own pace and route. Virtual participation is welcome, so you can do the distance wherever suits you. The cause is specific: proceeds go toward training costs for women pursuing careers in aviation.
