Feeding Tomorrow Fun Run + Fitness Fundraiser
Monday, July 17th, 6:30 am
McCormick Place
7:30 am: Celebratory After Party
Ever since a small group of runners gathered at the Institute of Food Technologist’s 2001 annual meeting in an effort to get some exercise and raise funds for students, the Fun Run + Fitness event has been an amazing opportunity to raise funds, join a community, and break a sweat!
Funds raised at this 5K run, 1-mile walk or yoga support scholarships for students pursuing careers in the science of food.
You can sign up for the Fun Run + Fitness when you register for IFT FIRST.
Build a team of individual runners, walkers or yogis that register to participate in the Fun Run + Fitness Fundraiser in support of the Feeding Tomorrow Fund Scholarship Program. Teams of 20 or more will receive special recognition at the Fun Run + Fitness Celebration. Email [email protected] for a team challenge form if you are the team captain.
