What is the Big Heart Big House Race?
The Big Heart Big House run/walk allows participants to designate any non-profit to receive funds raised. Last year our team raised nearly $7,000 for The Wellness Community of Southeast Michigan! This money went directly towards cancer support services offered at our center today.
The race starts and finishes at the University of Michigan’s famous football stadium--The Big House. It is the largest stadium in the country seating over 107,000 spectators. This chip-timed 5K starts in the parking lot east of The Big House and the run takes you through the University of Michigan’s beautiful campus with a spectacular finish--a run through the Big House tunnel and onto the field. You’ll finish on the 50 yard line and watch yourself on the Big House Big Screen! Join our team today by calling Barb at 734-975-2500 or email her at barb.hiltz@twc-semich.org.
