Mind Matters' Off The Beaten Path Set For April 30th

Murphys, CA...Off the Beaten Path, the Walk/Run for Autism Awareness will be staged for the fifth year on Saturday, April 30 in Murphys Community Park. The money raised will go to support Mind Matters, the Murphys based non-profit clinic that treats Autism and other learning disorders. The event will feature a 1K run, open to boys and girls aged seven and younger, and two other races, 5K and 10K, open to men and women of all ages. The scenic course will begin at the park and continue on Six Mile Road past rolling hills and beautiful vineyards. Participants who would rather walk than run are welcome to do so. Check-in time will start at 7 a.m. Following a warm-up session, conducted by Kat Juarez-Sutton, the first race will begin at 8 a.m. Awards will be presented in a variety of categories.

There is no charge for the 1K and race support runners, such as parents or older siblings, are welcome.
