Lace up your shoes and get ready for Healthy Horizons, a family friendly 5K Fun Run and 2K Fitness Walk perfect for everyone from the recreational walker to the competitive runner. 

Walkers will start at the Tubman African American Museum and follow a trail set along the banks of the beautiful Ocmulgee River Heritage Trail.  Runners will enjoy a sprint through the Macon Downtown Museum District.  The Healthy Horizons Family Fitness 5K Fun Run/ 2K Walk is the kickoff to a weekend of exciting events at the 12th Annual Pan African Festival of Georgia.  The event is sponsored by the SecureHorizons and Evercare divisions of United Healthcare and will promote moderate exercise and good nutrition as methods of prevention to chronic disease like hypertension, congestive heart failure, chronic vascular disorder, diabetes, cancer, cardiopulmonary disease, obesity, AIDS and HIV.

         

Your registration includes a performance t-shirt and an event gift bag.  Trophies and awards will be distributed for the top 3 finishers of the 5K Run in categories by age.  Team Awards will be distributed for the team with the most participants, and the team that raises the most funds to support the Tubman Museum, as well as, local charities that support research for the cure and treatment of diabetes, heart health and the fight against obesity. Join us after the Fun Run/Walk for free health screenings, wellness seminars, healthy cooking demonstrations and live entertainment.
