"Move Along" 5K Run & 1 Mile Walk
The "Move Along" 5K Run & 1 Mile Walk is a family-friendly athletic event held at Lebanon Valley College in Annville, Pennsylvania. The event serves as a fundraiser for Covenant House Pennsylvania, an organization providing shelter and supportive services for young adults experiencing homelessness.
Participants can choose between two distinct routes:
- 5K Run: A course that features a combination of trail and road sections.
- 1 Mile Walk: A shorter route that is fully accessible.
The name "Move Along" is used to raise awareness regarding the challenges faced by individuals experiencing homelessness, specifically those regarding public space restrictions and displacement. The event aims to turn this phrase into a positive concept by supporting stable housing and better futures for affected youth.
The venue at Lebanon Valley College includes amenities such as food trucks and designated parking areas. Participants are eligible for event swag, and packet pickup is held prior to the start. Registration fees vary by age group, with specific pricing tiers for children under five and those between ages six and twelve. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
