Good news for Prison Fellowship supporters in California who wanted to participate in last weekend’s Spartan Race in Virginia, but were unable to take the cross-country trip to be a part of the festivities—there is another opportunity to tie up your running shoes and get some exercise, while supporting Prison Fellowship. (And this time, you won’t have to worry about mud pits, rope climbs, or menacing Spartan warriors.)
On Saturday, October 6, Biola University will host its second annual 5 kilometer run/walk as part of the Biola Weekend festivities. Funds raised by the event will help support Biola’s social justice ministry, which is in partnership with Prison Fellowship. The race begins at 8:00 AM, and winds through the beautiful Biola campus. Cost is $10 for guests and $5.00 for students, with runners under the age of 10 running for free. Participants will receive a t-shirt for being part of the festivities, and prizes will be provided to runners with the best times from various categories.
