Race for Grief Support and Community | Lansing News

Nearly a thousand runners hit the pavement for Ele’s Race, a 21-year tradition raising funds for Ele’s Place, which offers free grief support to all. With options from a 5K to a kids’ dash, the event’s emotional highlight is the “Memory Mile,” where runners honor loved ones with displayed memory hearts.
