About 100 runners and walkers braved the weather Saturday, Feb. 23, 2019 to participate in the third annual Freeze to the Finish 5k Run/Walk in downtown Alexandria benefiting the Central Louisiana Homeless Coalition. The Freeze to the Finish 5k Run/Walk raises awareness about those people in the community who are unsheltered. The event helps to raise funds for the coalition to provide services to those who need them. Four weeks ago, the coalition along with volunteers combed the area looking for individuals in need to bring them supplies and information about community services available. An Everyday Heroes campaign was also encouraged for runners and walkers to raise funds by having a Everyday Hero fundraising page. Everyday Heroes could wear a superhero costume while running or walking.
