Church first before heading for today's race event...
The Burke 5.74K was today at East Jessamine Middle School.
This event is being held in Memory of Officer Burke Rhoads of the Nicholasville Police Department. I'm honored to be a small part of this 5.74K in remembrance of him. The community has shown such tremendous support to the family and the officers of NPD. We are grateful to be able to give back to the Fraternal Order of Police and the Nicholasville Police Department with the proceeds from the run that will support the community programs in Jessamine County and the City of Nicholasville.
WHY A 5.74K?
Simply put, Officer Burke Rhoads was a unique and rigorous individual and his badge number was 574. The Nicholasville Police Department retired his badge so it's only fitting to bring it out of retirement to make an event as distinctive and challenging!
