Here at Orswell Events, we wish we were spending our weekend at Green Lake producing the Top Pot Doughnut Dash.

Terry Fox began his cross-Canada run, the Terry Fox Marathon of Hope, to raise money and awareness for cancer. The illness took his leg at the young age of 18. Terry ran an average of 26 miles a day for 143 days through six provinces. Now there’s some Monday morning inspiration for ya.

This year's UW Bothell Husky 5K has been reformatted as a virtual run and will support the UW Bothell COVID 19 Student Emergency Fund.

This year's Husky 5K supports the UW Bothell COVID 19 Student Emergency Fund, which is why we're very excited to announce that the race has gone virtual!

We've dropped the registration price, but the excitement's still full value.

The new format will include exciting ways to engage with other participants while observing social distancing, including an active Tagboard, a scavenger hunt for signage and route videos for those of you participating from treadmills. Plus you'll get a pre-race packet chock full o' swag, a shirt, and race bib.

We hope you'll join us on Saturday, May 16th for this student support fundraiser, now 15 years running.
