    About This Event

    The 38th Annual Julie Diener 5k is a 5k run and 1 mile fun run that is held every year to honor the life of Julie Diener. Julie was a Southside High School student and cross country athlete who passed away in 1992 at the age of 18 in a car accident. For several years the Southside High School Wrestling Team has sponsored the race as their main fund raising event.
