The Blue Ribbon 10K for Prostate Cancer Awareness, presented by Fifth Third Bank, is a scenic 10K and 2 mile walk starting at Wick Park in Youngstown, Ohio.  The 10K will proceed through the campus of Youngstown State University, into Downtown Youngstown, and then return to Wick Park.  This 10K is tough enough to challenge any avid runner but perfect for the first time competitor as well. Walkers will make two laps around the revitalized and beautiful Wick Park.
