Forensic science students from Marshall University are sponsoring a 5k run Saturday, March 28, with a portion of the proceeds to benefit the Branches domestic violence center in Huntington.
“FoRUNsics 5K” will take place at Ritter Park beginning at 8 a.m. Organizers say the top three placing males and females will all receive prizes and medals, and the race will conclude with a prize raffle.
Registration is available online at http://www.tristateracer.com/RaceDirector/race.php?RaceID=7550. Participants may also print out and mail their registrations. The preregistration fee is $15, which includes a T-shirt. Registration the day of the race is $20, and also will include a T-shirt.
The students are members of Delta Delta Epsilon, which is an honor society for forensic science students.
Alyssa Tinnin, a representative of the group, said that business sponsorships are still available for the race. More information is available by contacting her by e-mail at tinnin2@live.marshall.edu or by phone at 334-451-2724.
