Syracuse Run/Walk for Recovery
The Syracuse Adult & Teen Challenge hosts its inaugural Run/Walk for Recovery at Onondaga Lake Park in Liverpool, New York. This athletic event serves as a fundraiser for a Christian residential discipleship program that assists individuals dealing with addiction, anxiety, and depression. The organization operates centers across New York, including locations in Syracuse, Rochester, Buffalo, and Long Island.
The event features a single distance for participants:
- 5 km run or walk
The course is located near the Saw Mill Creek Pavilion and Willow Bay Park. As the program does not receive government funding or insurance support, the registration fees and additional participant fundraising contribute directly to the operation of these residential centers. The event allows for peer-to-peer fundraising, where participants can gather support from friends and family to help sponsor individuals entering the recovery program. Prizes are awarded to participants based on their specific fundraising achievements.
The venue offers a standard 5 km route that accommodates both runners and walkers. Participants engage with the local community to support a mission focused on personal transformation and recovery through a structured discipleship model.
