The Environmental Defenders is joining The McHenry County Human Race! When you register to run, half of your registration is donated to us when you pick Environmental Defenders as your charity! And, if you make additional donations or create your very own fundraising page, 100% of those donations go to The Environmental Defenders!  And, you can run on your own, join a team or create your own team.  So, GET YOUR HERO ON and run for YOUR ENVIRONMENT!  (Do you have friends or family who live far away?  They can participate, too, as a virtual runner!)To register, please go to www.mchumanrace.org.
