1st Annual March 30, 2008 A Charities Challenge Memorial Event 8:30 AM - 5k Run/Walk & 1 Mile Walk around beautiful Lake Phalen, where Joe and his running buddy Joel Dickey ran “a gazillion” miles together in recent years as they trained to race local events, like the ThanksGiving Day – GivingThanks 5k picturing Joe and Joel here. Joe liked to say, “I’m living the dream”. Joe, age 24, strong, fit, happy and healthy, loving family & friends, “Living his Dream” of becoming a St. Paul Policeman, passed suddenly on January 12th, 2008, likely of an undiagnosed congenital heart condition. Complete (but limited) Results of the Joe Plant 5k
The Joe Plant Memorial 5k will be a very special occasion to be inspired every step of your way by Joe’s active commitment to strength and endurance, love of life, and service to others, and to go on “Living Your Own Dreams” and sharing those dreams side by side with family and friends, just as Joe did.
Join Joe’s family, life-long friends, fellow St Paul Policemen, and his running buddy Joel for an action-inspiring Joe Plant Memorial 5k Run/Walk that will help us all to be about “Living the Dream Every Step of the Way”. Entry Fee: $20 pre-registered/$25 race day. You’re invited to donate more than your entry fee in support of a permanent Memorial Marker & Public Bench at Lake Phalen that will inspire others to enjoy active living & happy running shared with friends throughout life. Joe died on the date of his dad’s funeral over twenty years ago. Excess event proceeds will go to Joe’s Mom who was widowed when Joe’s dad also died unexpectedly at an early age because of a congenital heart condition.
“Run with Joe” & Joel to one more Memorable Finish Line on March 30th at Lake Phalen! |
