Online registration is open for the 2015 Indoor Insanity 5k event scheduled for Sunday, Jan. 18, 2015 at Colby College in Waterville. 

Runners and walkers of all ages and abilities are welcome. Free T-shirts for registrations received by Jan. 7, 2015. Event day registration for all heats opens at 7 a.m., with the first heat starting at 8. The event ends by 11 a.m.

In addition to being a fun, family-friendly activity, the funds raised by the race will be used to install radon gas mitigation systems in low income housing where radon gas has been detected at dangerous levels. The EPA lists radon gas as the leading cause of lung cancer after smoking. 

“Mitigation systems can be costly for low income Mainers and currently no other organization helps families get quality professional radon mitigation systems installed,” explains Christine G. Crocker, executive director of the Maine Indoor Air Quality Council which is the organization holding the race.
