Race to Restore

Race to Restore is a 5K run/walk held within Mt. Hope Cemetery in Lansing, Michigan. The course remains on cemetery grounds and incorporates its natural hills, distinguishing it from a flat road race or a standard park loop. The entry fees support three cemeteries, providing funds for restoration projects, events, and the volunteer-run Cemetery Courtesy Office. Participants are encouraged to wear costumes, either scary or silly, with a costume contest judged by a celebrity.
