Still Standing 5K - In Support of Chelsea Clanton's Medical Expenses

The only 5K you can run wherever you want... or not.

A dear friend and avid runner, Chelsea Clanton, recently lost her left leg above the knee after a terrible car accident. She's been through an incredible ordeal and is now facing an uncertain future that will involve reinventing her career, remodeling her home, and figuring out a new normal. But despite the overwhelming amount of change ahead of her, she's got an amazing attitude and plans to get back to running as soon as she can with the help of amazing doctors, advanced technology, and YOU! 

You can run, jog, walk, ride, or put in your 3.1 miles however you prefer from wherever you are! Show your support on a track, on a treadmill, around your neighborhood, at the mall, or even from your couch (don't worry, we won't tell). We'll be collecting "registrations" until March 30, 2018. After that date, we will ship out a SWEET race t-shirt after the March 30th cut-off date to every "runner" that registers for the virtual 5K event. Scroll to the bottom of our Race Info page to see a picture of the t-shirt!

If you would also like to add an additional donation, those are certainly welcome! You can also donate without registering for the 5K, but those donors will not be on the list to receive a t-shirt.

Our goal is to not only raise enough money to help Chelsea with the expensive prosthesis and home modifications that will be necessary, but we also hope to show a HUGE outpouring of emotional support as well! Once you receive your race t-shirt, post pictures on all of your social media (and to our Facebook page) using the hashtag #CheeringForChelsea so she can see all the support from across the Midwest as she fights for a new normal.

Be sure to follow the "Still Standing 5K for Chelsea Clanton" Facebook page to see updates and other peoples' photos from around the country! If you do not wish to register through the 5K event and would prefer to mail a donation instead, please mail donations payable to "Chelsea Clanton Medical Fund" to our volunteers at the address below. We will be collecting funds that will be provided to her in one lump sum after the conclusion of the virtual 5K event on March 30th. Thank you for your support, and keep on cheering!
