(July 7, 2020 5:08 PM) To protect the health and safety of participants, Henry Ford Allegiance Health has announced its annual Race to Health will be a virtual event in September 2020. Runners and walkers will choose a day within the range of September 12 through 26 to participate in the 5K run, 5K walk or 5-mile run individually. They will then report their times and be recognized for being part of this health-promoting community event. Details on the virtual race and other run/walk events are available later this year on social media and HenryFord.com/Race. Registration is available online.

In May, HFAH announced it was postponing its 2020 Henry Ford Allegiance Health Get Moving! Race Series, which included its annual Race to Health. “Out of an abundance of caution and to remove pressure from race directors to hold their events, we postponed the Get Moving! race series until 2021,” said Joseph Medellin, MD, Henry Ford Allegiance Sports Medicine. “In the meantime, we encourage everyone to get moving around their yards or neighborhoods. Walking or running outdoors pumps the heart and lifts the spirit.”

Anyone exercising away from home is encouraged to practice social distancing and wear a mask for their own protection and the safety of others.
