17th Annual "Run For Your Life" 5k
The Run For Your Life 5k is an annual event organized by the Florida State University Medical Response Unit. Held in Tallahassee, the race starts at the Unconquered Statue on the FSU campus. This event serves as a fundraiser to support the Medical Response Unit, a volunteer organization that provides free first-responder medical care to the university community.
The event is open to participants of all ages, including students, alumni, family members, and local supporters. Participants have the option to walk, run, or compete for prizes. Local first responder agencies are present on-site during the event, providing an opportunity for the public to interact with Tallahassee's public service personnel.
Registered participants who check in on the day of the race receive:
- A race shirt
- An entry into a giveaway for prizes provided by local sponsors
All proceeds from the race are used to maintain the equipment and standards of care provided by the student volunteers of the Medical Response Unit. The unit operates as a quick response team for emergency medical calls on the main FSU campus, working alongside local EMS and public service agencies.
