10th Annual We Can Run, Walk & Roll

Each year, Columbus Community Hospital looks forward to holding its We Can Run, Walk & Roll event. However, out of concern for the health and safety of event participants and attendees, CCH is cancelling this year’s event due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

This would have been the 10th annual We Can Run, Walk & Roll, and CCH does not plan to let this special milestone go unnoticed. The 10th anniversary of the event will be celebrated in 2021.

For more information on We Can Run, Walk & Roll, as well as what CCH is doing to protect its patients, staff and the community from COVID-19, click here.

About We Can Run, Walk & Roll


 

The We Can Run, Walk & Roll event is designed to eliminate barriers of physical disabilities and allow competitors of all levels and abilities to race together. The goal of the event is to promote community wellness while providing a race that is for everyone – from beginners to competitive runners, joggers and walkers. Individuals using wheelchairs also have the opportunity to compete in the event individually or with the assistance of a team of up to three pushers. 

Participants can choose to compete in a 5K (3.1 miles) or 1-mile race held in Columbus’ Pawnee Park. Both races conclude in Pawnee Park’s Memorial Stadium, where awards are given to the top finishers in several categories. 

Proceeds from the event go toward purchasing AmTrykes for individuals and families in our community. AmTrykes are adaptive tricycles that allow differently-abled individuals to participate more fully in health and wellness activities. 

Since the first event in 2011, We Can Run, Walk & Roll events have funded the purchase of more than 50 AmTrykes which have been given to individuals and families in our community. Proceeds from the event have also helped support a fundraising effort for a barrier-free playground in our community. For more information on the event, visit our FAQs page of our website.
