The Run
The Redmond Ridge 5K Trail Run will take place on running trails in the Redmond Ridge community 10 minutes east of Redmond. The beginning and end of the run are on a wide, paved running path, with the majority of the run on soft bark trails through the woods. The race starts and finishes in a park. Come check out the scenic Redmond Ridge trails and run, jog, or walk for a good cause! The purpose of our run
Each year, an
estimated 600,000-800,000 men, women and
children are
trafficked across borders and the trade is growing. As
astonishing as
this figure is, it is considered to be conservative.
Victims are forced into prostitution, to work in sweat shops, on farms, as domestics, as child soldiers and in many forms of involuntary servitude. This is why we cant stop running
now!
100% of
your registration fee will benefit the Home Foundation
that is
championing the fight against human trafficking.
 Registration Fee: $20 advance /
