Ohio Valley Goodwill Promoting People to Go the Distance during PigAbilities and 2017 Flying Pig Expo!
Ohio Valley Goodwill is excited about its first-time sponsorship of the PigAbilities event as part of the Flying Pig Marathon this year and runners, walkers and rollers are all busy getting signed up for the big event on Saturday, May 6th at 1 pm. PigAbilities is an empowering option for all ages and abilities and participants commit to going the distance by making healthy choices in their lives. The PigAbilities event takes place when there are fewer crowds, increased accessibility and more parking. While there are no timing chips or first place winners, PigAbilities participants should be willing to ” go the distance” by making a commitment to enrich their lives through being more active and making healthy choices. On Saturday, May 6th participants will gather for a 1:00pm Start Time and walk, roll or stroll the final mile on the actual Flying Pig Marathon course! At the Finish Line each finisher will receive a PigAbilities medal to commemorate their achievement.
