Race raises money for public art

We were pleased to cheer on more than 100 runners who participated in the 1st Annual MidTown Cleveland, Inc. 5K and One Mile Fun Run on Sunday, August 26 at Colonel Young Square Park, located at the intersection of Prospect Avenue and Prospect Road.

The race was organized to help support public art projects, including the relocation of “The Politician- A Toy” created by area artist Billie Lawless, which will be moved to East 55th Street and Euclid Avenue.

In the 5K race, the top male finisher was Hubert Suskiewicz, 23, of Seven Hills, with a time of 16:55. Katherine Jereb, 44, of Cleveland, was the top female finisher with a time of 23:34.
