Carpe Diem Epilepsy Run

The Carpe Diem Epilepsy Run is a Sunday morning 5K run and 3K walk held at Swan Creek Metropark in Toledo, Ohio. Check-in begins at 8:30 a.m., with the 5K starting at 9:00 a.m. and the walk commencing at 9:15 a.m. This event focuses on epilepsy awareness and generates funds for epilepsy programs at The Epilepsy Center of Northwest Ohio. The race offers a straightforward setup: participants receive a shirt, timing chip, and bracelet. Walkers have a 3K route available at a reduced registration fee. Well-behaved, vaccinated, leashed dogs are permitted, with owners responsible for their pets. The event's name reflects its theme, encouraging participants to "Seize the Day" as they run, walk with companions, or offer support to individuals and families impacted by epilepsy.
