Hy-5 Race to Benefit MetroHealth Hospitals

Hyland Software and MetroHealth are teaming up Saturday, May 18, for the fifth-annual Hy-5 Race, which includes a 5K run, a one-mile walk and a one-mile kids’ run – all managed by Hermes Road Racing.

This family-friendly event will begin at 9 a.m. at Hyland Software’s corporate headquarters at 28500 Clemens Road, Westlake.

Proceeds from the race support MetroHealth. Last year's Hy-5 race attracted approximately 1,000 participants and raised $50,000.

Kicking off the day, by leading warm-up exercises, will be youth from MetroHealth’s Aamoth Family Pediatric Wellness Center, a drop-in center on MetroHealth’s main campus where adolescents and their families learn about healthier lifestyles through exercise and nutrition.
