Squeeze the Day 5k

The Squeeze the Day 5k is a charitable running event held in Westlake, Louisiana, at Pinederosa Park. The race features a flat 5K course that begins and ends at the park, running along a scenic golf course. In addition to the 5K, there is a 1-mile fun run and an option to purchase a custom event T-shirt.

The event supports the Methodist Children's Home of Southwest Louisiana, which provides residential care for children with emotional and behavioral needs. Participants enjoy a friendly atmosphere with post-race food, awards, and activities. Age group awards and special prizes are given, including handmade commemorative lemon dishes crafted by children in care. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
