Raising awareness and funds for children and adults living with life threatening food allergies and anaphylaxis for the 4th year in a row, WIOG's Leaping Lizard run/walk was a great success & did not get rained out!

This 10k/5k run and walk was started by a local mom, Alicia Gwizdala who's son has life threatening food allergies.

Adults & children of all ages look forward to this event every year while helping a tremendous cause. Thanks to sponsors such as Healthy Habitz 4 Life in Frankenmuth for donating tasty & healthy snacks to all the run/walk participants.

Food allergies can have severe reactions and most common among children is the peanut allergen. It is important to know how to use an epi pen!
