Kayla O'Mara Memorial Road Race

The Kayla O'Mara Memorial Road Race is an annual event held in Goodrich, Michigan, typically on the first Saturday of August. The race features multiple events including a 5k run/walk, a 5k competitive walk for youth, a 1/2 mile fun run, and a virtual 5k option for remote participants. The 5k course starts on Hegel Road in front of Goodrich High School and returns with a track finish, with the course open to traffic requiring runners to stay to the right.

The event fosters a supportive atmosphere, honoring Kayla O'Mara's memory and raising funds for a scholarship awarded to local students. It is part of the Michigan Runner Race Series and includes post-race festivities. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
