What a great run we had this year. Thank you to those who participated. Our numbers were up and our donation dollars were up significantly. We couldn't have asked for a better 5th year anniversary. Thank you to our sponsors (businesses & local churches) for making this year our best year. Thank you to our volunteers and volunteer director for covering all the details. And thanks to our host The Village for seeing this as an important event in Durham.

Runner Count : 230

Amount going to Habitat Durham : $8300 (that is crazy good)
