LifeWise 5K

The LifeWise 5K for Allen County is a family-friendly running and walking event held in Elida, Ohio, supporting LifeWise Academy programs that provide Bible instruction to over 2,500 public school students in the area. The race takes place on Labor Day morning, starting and finishing near the Sunnydale House next to Elida Elementary. The flat 5K course winds through the village of Elida, with volunteers encouraging participants along the way.

In addition to the 5K, there is a 1K Fun Run sponsored by Lewis Family McDonald's. The event welcomes all ages and offers awards for top finishers, water stations, and post-race refreshments. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
