Ryan´s Run 5th year event draws largest crowd to date. New 1 Mile fun run a huge hit!

On Saturday June 21st 2008 Ryan’s Run, the sole fundraising event for the Ryan Andrew Kaiser memorial Foundation drew a crowd of almost 800 people. Great weather, great sponsors and fantastic runners make for a very memorable Ryan’s Run.

Over 150 people ran with us in our new 1 mile fun run and over 450 runners finished the 5k. Our kiddie races for children under 8 years old continues to be a parents favorite with great races and photo ops for over 150 kids.

Mario Gagliano Co-Director of Ryan’s Run, took a third in his age group and had this to say about the days events;

“Ryan’s Run and the foundation are really a great tribute to Ryan and an inspiration to all parents who have suffered a loss …. Not to mention they reminds all of us who haven’t to be grateful for everyday we don’t have to face the same thing. We feel we have created a moving event that attracts runners, families and friends. Ryan’s Run is truly a unique race, one not to miss”
