THON held its annual 5k run Sunday morning, getting volunteers up and running for this season and energized for the trek ahead to THON 2019.

From tutus to Nittany Lion costumes to dogs and strollers, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a 5k with so much dancing. It’s fitting, considering the upcoming 46-hour dance marathon.

See the sights of the race, a favorite among THON organizations and families alike:

We dance in 116!
