Through an incredible journey from surgery and chemotherapy to endurance training and ultramarathons, Phil found a lifestyle change and a new purpose. After defeating cancer two times and realizing how blessed his family was, he decided there weren’t enough resources to help kids who have lost a parent to cancer. Running for Dreams is here to change that.

Join us for a 5k (3.1 Mile) run or walk from the Colonial Country Club in Harahan and onto the Mississippi River Levee Path where runners will turnaround at the halfway point.

The post-race fest will begin immediately following the race on the old tennis courts of the Country Club. Join us for live music by Refried Confuzion, amazing food and drinks courtesy of Inland Seafood, Natco Foods, Southern Eagle, Coca-Cola and a guaranteed good time!
