Every year people in our communities are injured by unforeseen accidents that leave them challenged in ways they had never imagined. Often their daily challenges are made easier by the use of equipment such as wheelchairs, walkers, or braces. Unfortunately, there are times when insurance does not cover these expenses, leaving those injured to do without.

The Good Samaritan Challenge, benefiting the Physical Rehabilitation Department of the Good Samaritan Regional Medical Center, is set to challenge athletes and our community to raise money for those in need of assistive devices. Proceeds from the run will be used to create a fund to assist in purchasing equipment for those in need.

Course Description: The 5k is a mostly flat loop course with one short but challenging hill. The 12k follows the first 2 1/4 miles of the 5k course before splitting off. At approximately 4 1/2 miles the 12k runners meet their hill challenge which is approximately .5 miles long with varying grades. The course then loops back to the start utilizing roads and bike paths.

Course maps: 5k and 12k.
