Milwaukee Lakefront Marathon announced today a new event to add to the race weekend experience called "Walk The Hoan." The event takes place on Saturday, Oct. 5 at 10:30 a.m. and all proceeds will benefit the This Time Tomorrow Foundation.
“This Time Tomorrow Foundation provides direct financial support to those fighting cancer in a time they need it the most,” says Cory Zimmermann, co-founder of This Time Tomorrow Foundation.
This challenging and inspiring event aims to give new perspective to the skyline of Milwaukee as well as a chance for participants to join in the fight against cancer.
"Partnering with a local cancer-fighting organization makes 'Walk the Hoan' even more impactful,” said Scott Stauske, race director of Milwaukee’s Lakefront Marathon. “We all have a reason to hate cancer, and now we can join in that fight, all while enjoying the beauty Milwaukee offers.”
Registration for "Walk The Hoan" is now open and is $35 which includes participation and an official race T-shirt. The remaining proceeds will benefit This Time Tomorrow Foundation.
The Milwaukee Lakefront 5k will also move to Saturday, Oct. 5. Both events start and end at Urban Park. The Marathon and Half Marathon remain scheduled for Sunday, Oct. 6.
