Race Information
The Lawndale 5K is hosted every year by Lawndale Christian Fitness Center (LCFC). This event brings the community together to run, walk, and play, and it invites people near and far to join in! The proceeds of the Lawndale 5K are used to support the FitnessRx program, which provides free memberships for LCHC patients with a chronic illness. Together we build a stronger community one step, jog, and sprint at a time.
