Run For Your Life Murrieta 5K Set for March 4

The second annual Run for Your Life Murrieta Run/Walk will take place at Loma Linda University Medical Center-Murrieta Sunday, March 4.

Proceeds from the event will help provide education and training for LLUMC-Murrieta emergency healthcare providers. The 5K race begins at 8:30 a.m. and the Kids Fun Run begins at 9:30 a.m.

“Loma Linda University Medical Center-Murrieta serves the community,” said Robert Steele, MD, Associate Professor and Chair of Emergency Medicine at LLUMC-Murrieta.

“I think it’s vitally important that we have events like Run for Your Life Murrieta to continue to raise awareness of our mission and devotion to our patients, community and medical center.”

Run for Your Life Murrieta will support the Emergency Department’s efforts to create an integrated and synergistic approach to healthcare through education and training.

Last year, Run For Your Life Murrieta 5K drew more than 500 runners to Murrieta’s first road race. This year, race organizers changed the race course to an out and back along Whitewood to make the run more scenic.

All race participants registered before Feb. 22 will be guaranteed a technical running shirt. 

The entry fees are $35 if received on or before Feb.22 and $40 on race day.
