Would a 5K be a good fundraiser? |
|
 Starting a 5K run/walk is not easy. The following is some information that might make you decide to try a chicken dinner or a bake sale instead. There were only about 40 mid-Michigan road races a dozen years ago, and now there are more than 100. Increased competition, especially in the warmer months, is leading to smaller numbers -- and therefore less money raised for charities -- for new and repeat events. But this information should be helpful not only for those who still decide to start a new road race but also for someone looking to improve a race or for someone who has been selected as a new race director for an established event.
