Lace up your sneakers, because Systems Unlimited’s Sensory Run & Walk is returning! On Saturday, October 19th, the people we serve and our community alike will come together in Iowa City to participate in our 5K and 1-mile walk and enjoy one sensory experience after another.
With your incredible support last year, we hosted the event in person for the first time ever and were able to raise funds for System Unlimited! With our first in-person event under our belt, we are so excited to bring this event back to you bigger and better.
We are sure some of you are wondering what a Sensory Run & Walk is. At Systems Unlimited, many of the people we provide services to have specific sensory needs. With that in mind, we made sensory the theme of our event! Throughout the 5K and 1-Mile routes, you will find stations set up to engage each sense.

In addition to this event, through donations, we are able to host a 12-week walking club for the people we serve leading up to the event and allow the people we serve to participate in the Sensory Run free of cost. This created opportunities for friendship and healthy habits among the individuals we serve, all without any financial burden.
Make sure to join us in making a lasting impact on the lives of those we serve and have an amazing time at the Live Your Best Life Sensory Run & Walk.
