Everyone had a great time this afternoon at the 3rd Annual King of Hearts 5K. The day started out with a performance by one of the bands from the Ann Arbor School of Rock followed by the Kid Dashes by grade level across the front lawn at King. The 5K main event began about 2:00 with close to 200 participants. I talked with several students who had never ran or walked 3.1 miles before today. They proudly walked across the finish line and were awarded with a medal which they wore proudly. Our fun was capped with food by area merchants and a performance by jazz musicians from our own Huron High School.
Many thanks to Mark Spieles and Cynthia Gur-Arie for making this event happen. Nice work!
