FSR is excited to announce that the K.I.S.S. 5K Run/Walk will move to Nashville this year!
After hosting the event in Chicago for three consecutive years, we look forward to spreading the awareness the Chicago event has helped foster to another region. We are confident that the movement will continue to grow in Nashville, Chicago, and beyond for years to come. Please save the date and join us on Saturday, April 22nd!
This year’s theme is Superheroes for Sarcoidosis! We encourage walkers and runners to dress up as their favorite superheroes. Prizes will be awarded for:
- Best individual costume
- Best group costume
- Best Sarcoidosis Superhero costume
Prizes will also be awarded to our top finishers by gender and age groups. This is a timed race with results accessible immediately when you finish.
There’s also exciting news for those who cannot attend the event in person this year!
