Event Description:
Join us for the second annual Share Your Spare 5K Run/Walk on Saturday, September 5, 2015 at 9:00am at The Kentucky Horse Park to help raise awareness for kidney disease while emphasizing the need for more registered organ donors. Funds raised through this year's Share Your Spare 5K will support "Get Healthy, Get Transplanted," a new program created by The Kidney Health Alliance of Kentucky (KHAKY). In order to be approved for an organ transplant, patients must undergo medical testing and evaluation, some of which includes having a healthy weight (BMI), a dental exam to confirm no active infections, and smoking cessation. For some kidney disease patients, meeting this criteria can be challenging. "Get Healthy, Get Transplanted" will assist these patients by providing them with a dentist, health coach, and/or fitness centers which will make overcoming their obstacles possible so that they can be approved for placement on the transplant waiting list. By participating in Share Your Spare 5K Run/Walk, you will support these individuals while bringing awareness to kidney disease and the significance of becoming an organ donor. Since kidneys come in pairs, you have the unique opportunity to "Run as a Spare" or "Run as a Pair." There is also a VIRTUAL RUNNER category for runners/walkers who live outside of Lexington and would like to show their support by running/walking a 5K in their respective community on September 5th. Your registration fee includes shipping and handling for your race T-shirt and custom race bib. There will also be a Kids One Mile Fun Run for kids 12 years of age and under (4 and under are free). Regardless of how or where you participate, we hope you will join us on September 5th to show support for kidney disease patients.
