The Glo Run- Madison, Madison

Rather than giving your mom the same old card and 20-verse sonnet this Mother's Day, the Mother's Day 5K lets everyone create a morning of memories during a great cardio workout (plus candies and flowers, of course). Here's what participants and their matriarchs can expect from this heartwarming adventure:

• The Course: The 5K which can be run or walked, starts and ends in Olin Park, and charters Expo Way and circles Quann Park
• The Perks (from the starting line): Everybody gets a stylish and super-soft ring-spun designer tee, available in purple or gray, and a racing bib with a timing chip built in.
• The Perks (at the finish line): Mother (and all finishers) receive a rose, plus a chocolate cake pop.
• The Cause: Proceeds benefit the Wisconsin Ovarian Cancer Alliance
