Our evolving Wellness Program will continue to focus on your personal health journey. It is designed to inform conference attendees, exhibitors and family members of registered attendees of the various aspects of health, which include physical activity, nutrition and stress management. These interactive sessions will focus on information and solutions to help you be and feel your best.

There is no additional cost to participate in these sessions.

Fun Run/Walk
Sunday, August 7 | 7: 00 a.m.
Anaheim Convention Center, Grand Plaza

Lace up your shoes and get ready to run or walk for wellness! Enjoy the California crisp morning air and get moving to start the week off right. Participants will follow a course around the convention center campus for approximately 3 miles.

Signup Information
Signup is free for all attendees and exhibitors and information on how to sign up will be sent out in the July Attendee Newsletter. You must register in advance by August 4 to confirm your spot. We will not be able to accommodate onsite signups. This race is limited to the first 150 registrants.

Race Bib Pickup
Race bib pickup is on Saturday, August 6 between 1-6pm at the Fun Run/Walk table in the lobby of the convention center near registration.

Timing
There will be a digital clock at the start/finish line so you can note your finish time. We will not have an official recorded time (this is a FUN run/walk after all).

Course
The course is two loops for approximately three miles. While it is a flat course, the City of Anaheim will not be closing roads, so all runners will need to remain on sidewalks and adhere to all pedestrian laws, obey all traffic signals and look for traffic.
