Warrior Run Fun

Some 1,400 walkers and runners participated in the Warrior Run, a 5-K run and 1-mile walk through the treelined streets of Mariemont. This is a 17 percent increase over last year’s successful event! Besides the run and walk, activities included a family-oriented party in Dogwood Park with music and children’s games, as well as a Bid-nBuy featuring items donated by local merchants. The race is officially known as The Warrior Run, The Race for Life. Proceeds from the event benefit Surviving the Teens, a suicide prevention program created by Cincinnati Children’s Medical Center. A donation will also be made to the Bullying Prevention program at Mariemont Schools. The race raised approximately $50,000 for those causes, an increase of 42 percent over last year.
