Event
Details
Halloween weekend in the fall of 2009 will bring the inaugural running
of the Life Without Limits Half Marathon, 5K & Fun Run, a race
designed to raise both money and awareness about the mission of United
Cerebral Palsy of Northwest Alabama, a nonprofit organization dedicated
to helping children, adults and families dealing with cerebral palsy
and related disabilities.
The race will take runners through both the city streets of Florence
and across two bridges that span the wide Tennessee River which flows
through the heart of the city. The bridge crossings will involve some
significant changes in elevation both on the ascent and descent, but
much of the rest of the course will feature a mixture of flat and fast
stretches along paved surfaces, as well as rolling hills in some
sections, on
both sides of the river.
Race

Florence's October average monthly temperatures range from a high of
74°F to a low of 49°F, while rainfall totals during the
month average just over 3.2 inches.
