I Can And I Will Run

The "I Can and I Will Run" is an annual running event featuring a 5k, 10k, and Kid's Dash, held in Green Lake. This event aims to raise funds for the uncompensated care fund at Seattle Children's Hospital, supporting families in need of medical care. Inspired by the story of Olivia Vitello, who faces a rare genetic disorder, the event encourages participants to embody the mantra "I can.

And I will." Runners can choose to participate in person or virtually, with a scenic course that includes the Green Lake Community Center and surrounding areas. All proceeds directly benefit children and families facing financial hardships. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
