Event Information
Presented by the First Baptist Church of Macon's Sisters Inspiring Sisters and the Master's Men, this event was inspired
by First Lady Michelle Obama’s initiative to fight childhood obesity. Our bodies are God’s
temple. 1 Corinthians 6:19 reads, “…do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you,
whom you have from God, and you are not your own?” We at First Baptist are committed to taking care of the temple.
Pastor James Goolsby invites you to walk or run with him to raise awareness about childhood obesity, and encourage people
from all ages to be healthy and live a more active lifestyle. A free health and fitness expo will take place for race
participants and members of the general public. Local health care and fitness professionals will be available to offer
free health care screenings, free samples, and give demonstrations and showcase their services.
The race will start at the Porter Pavilion in Amerson River Park - on the beautiful and scenic Ocmulgee Heritage Trail - circling the walking path twice and returning to end back at the Porter Pavilion.
Short sleeve t-shirts and goodie bags are guaranteed for the 1st 100 participants registered. A first place award will be given to the overall top male and female participants. Awards will be given to the top male and female participants in all age categories.
Participating children 17 and under must register and have a parent present.
