"The 5k Scrub Fun Run-Run for Rachel" is an annual fundraiser to honor Rachel Petersen who passed away unexpectedly at 25. This Fun Run emphasizes the Fun!
Just to let ppl know, the FB acct of Karyn Petersen and the 5k Scrub Run has been hacked. (Sometimes people suck!). We are trying to get back the accts, but have been unsuccessful and there is someone posing as me.
Please do not engage with either acct.
Thanks-Karyn
