What is the Glow Run for the WIN 5k?
WIN's 5k Glow Run is an exciting race for both the avid and the novice. For the novice, the race is less about how fast you run and more about enjoying the glowing experience and course with your friends and family. For the avid racer, the course is an excellent way to have your best run timed. This race sees participants of all different speeds, ages, shapes and sizes ready to GLOW! So whether you are a casual walker or an avid runner, "The Glow Run for the WIN" invites you to be part of the FUN!
Why Glow Run for the WIN? Alarming statistics indicate that, as you read this short sentence, a woman has become the victim of an assault. According to the Partnership Against Domestic Violence, every 9 seconds, another woman in the U.S. is beaten. It’s a sobering reality that in our country 1 in 3 women will experience domestic violence in her lifetime. The highest demographic of victims are between the ages of 20-24. Domestic Violence has generational implications too. Girls who witness Family Violence and don’t receive help are more likely to enter an abusive relationship as a teen. Young boys from families where Family Violence is prevalent are far more likely to become abusers as teens and adults if no one intervenes.
