Enid News and Eagle

ENID, Okla. — The second annual Junior Welfare League’s Warm Your Heart 5K and one-mile fun run will be 9 a.m. today in downtown Enid.

The race will begin at 121 N. Grand. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to American Heart Association’s Go Red for Women Campaign.

“The women of Junior Welfare League of Enid are very excited to sponsor this run,” said run coordinator Heidi Ritchie. “We realize that heart disease is the No. 1 killer of women, and we wanted to do something to promote awareness of such a big health issue in our nation and specifically Oklahoma.”

Title sponsors are St. Mary’s Regional Medical Center and Integris Bass Baptist Health Center.

Registration costs $30 to run the 5K and $20 to run the one-mile fun run. The cost for couples is $50. Registration begins at 8 a.m. T-shirts will be provided as long as supplies last.

Awards will be given for top male and female runners in each category for the 5K: 12 and under, 13-19, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59 and 60-plus. Overall male and female winners are not eligible for age division awards. Top three costumes also will receive awards.

Randolph and Maple will be closed from Quincy to 3rd until 11 a.m. for the race.쇓
