First Annual Strive 5K

The first annual STRIVE 5k was a great success! Over 125 runners, 50 volunteers, and many amazing fans made this an amazing event! The race course was hilly, but it wasn't a challenge for Dan Stanton who had just completed the Boston Marathon. Dan won the race with a time of 18:25. Coming in first for the women was Sanya Syrstad with a time of 19:57. Each of the competitors, no matter what their level, did an amazing job of running and walking hard to complete the 3.1 mile course. Congratulations to all the runners and walkers for a great race!

Make sure to check out the results, pictures, and videos of the day. Campus Life would also like to thank our sponsors for making the STRIVE 5k truly successful. Please make sure to visit these local businesses whenever you can!

Keep your eyes out for the STRIVE 5k run/walk next year as well. We hope to make it even bigger and better with more runners!! Thank you again for making it such a pleasure and we look forward to seeing you next spring!
