Step It Up! 5K, 1 Mile Run or Walk and Health Expo

The Wyandotte Clinic for the Working Uninsured is hosting its first annual Step It Up! 5K, 1 Mile Run or Walk with a Health Expo to help downriver residents start on a path to fitness and better health.  We want to help our community know about their health risks and how to lower them in a fun and healthy way.  Our event will kick off with a 5K run or walk and 1 Mile walk.  At 8:30 the Expo will be open for screenings and presentations about exercise and nutrition and healthy environments.  5K awards will be at 10:00 a.m.  We will have Tai Chi demonstrations at 9 a.m. and 12 noon.  Veggie Patti will be on the stage at 11:00 a.m. to talk about Taking Charge of Your Health. Raffle prizes will be awarded at 1:00 p.m.  Come out and join in!  We also need volunteers to cheer the runners and help direct them on the race route.  The 5K is $25 and includes a t-shirt.  The 1 Mile is free, t-shirts are available for $10 until they are sold out.   The Expo screenings are free.   More info at our website at www.wyandotteclinic.com or call 734.365.6002.
