Cupid’s Chase Annual Run Aids People With Disabilities

On Saturday morning, February 11, people across 33 cities in 10 states will participate in the ninth annual Cupid’s Chase 5K run, presented by Community Options, Inc. The Princeton run starts at Princeton Shopping Center on North Harrison Street, with registration at 8 a.m. and the race beginning at 10 a.m.

Community Options is a national nonprofit organization that provides housing and employment support to people with disabilities. Every year, Community Options holds their annual 5K to raise money to help support individuals with disabilities in their local communities. The event has raised over $700,000 during the last three years, with nearly 5,000 runners in attendance across the country last year.

Three new locations have been added for this year’s 5K, including Lubbock, Texas, and Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. Participants will receive an “Available” or “Unavailable” shirt to wear for the race in hopes of sparking a love connection, as well as a finisher medal, a goody bag, and refreshments.
