13.5 Mile Run
This year, Hope From Coast to Coast is hosting a 13.5 mile run in State College to symbolize the 135 miles between the children at Penn State Children's Hospital in Hershey and the Bryce Jordan Center. The run will take place on Saturday February 18, 2023 starting at 8:00am. The course map will be announced closer to the date of the event, but will start and finish near the Bryce Jordan Center. There will be no registration fee, but participants will be asked to fundraise a minimum of $135 to participate in the event.
