Midway Strong: 5K Group
"My New Year resolution for 2025 was to participate in one 5K race a month over the course of the year. I signed up for the New Year's Day 5K at North Forsyth Middle School. Other church members made this their resolution too. Buck Buckly, Doug Murray and Mark and Emmie Niethammer join over time and eventually the group was named: "Midway Strong: 5K Group."
We accomplished our resolution in 2025 and kept going, some of us even participating in the Peachtree Road Race on July 4th!"
All are welcome to join.
Run or walk. Participate in all the races or just one. Your race entry fee is the only cost.
Our goal is to get out, get moving, get healthy, and to finish each race while spreading positivity!
Contact Mike Christensen for more information on upcoming races.
Upcoming races:
Nov 14 - Running Towards Tomorrow 5K for Suicide Prevention at the Cumming City Center
Nov 27 - Tryptophan Half/10K/5K on Thanksgiving
