The fourth annual Beat BC 5K race was held on 14 October 2007.  Eighty-three participants took place in the Beat BC 5K event.  Forty-two individuals entered the 5K run, thirty-one entered the 5K walk and ten entered the fun run. Cheston Coe won the 5K men’s race with a time of 16:40 minutes.  Brooke Werstler won the 5K women’s race with a time of 22:25 minutes.  Daniel Owen won the men’s 5K walk with a time of 36:58 minutes.  Danielle Price won the women’s 5K walk with a time of 36:57 minutes. This event would not have been possible without the help of the many volunteers, sponsors and donations. A check was given to Cancer Services of Northeast Indiana on 5 November 2007 for $6400. The Beat BC 5K committee would like to thank all the participants, volunteers, and supporters who helped make this years race successful.
