Run with the Police 2020 5K Fun Run/Walk Presented by Conlin Properties
The sixth annual 5K Fun Run/Walk (Run with the Police) takes place in downtown Des Moines. Runners and walkers of all levels are welcome to participate in the timed race!
Race Info
Race day is Saturday, May 16, 2020 at 9:00am.
2020 race proceeds will benefit Make-A-Wish Iowa. Participants are encouraged to collect donations above and beyond the registration fee as all donations will go directly to the charities.
Every other day, Make-A-Wish Iowa is granting a wish to a child with a critical illness. These wishes provide children with the strength and optimism needed to complete their treatment. Donations to Make-A-Wish Iowa go toward covering the costs of a wish – currently averaging at $13,000 – and providing children and their families with memories that last a lifetime.
