The Exercise Science Club is hosting a 5k Fun Run on Saturday, April 30.

The 5k is open to all LVC students. The course is throughout campus and was created in collaboration with James O’Brien, head cross country coach.

Members of the Exercise Science Club have been planning this event since December. There has been talk about hosting a 5k on campus before, but no organizations ever took the opportunity to until now.

“The purpose of the run is to promote health and wellness around campus and to help students destress before finals,” Emily Bartlett, vice president of the Exercise Science Club, said.

The 5k Fun Run begins at 9 a.m. Students interested in participating can sign up on Redbook. It costs five dollars and t-shirts will be given to the first 50 people who sign up.
