You can get some exercise and support a good cause with the third annual 5K Run/Walk for Rachel.

It will be Saturday, May 15 at Old Settlers Park in Round Rock. The event begins at 8 a.m.

The competitive run and non-competitive run/walk honors Rachel Cooke, an accomplished cross-country runner. She disappeared January 10, 2002, while on her daily four-mile run near her Georgetown home.

The site was especially chosen by the Cooke family because Rachel competed there three times a year with the cross-country team at Georgetown High School.

All proceeds from the $20 registration fee go to the Rachel Alert Network, or RAN, which promotes public safety and supports families of missing persons.

The Run/Walk is the organization's primary source of income. The $20 entry fee gets you a t-shirt and food from Applebee's and Round Rock Donuts.
