AUSTIN, Texas - IDEA Public Schools in the greater Austin area is hosting its annual 5K Run/Walk and Healthy Living Expo at the IDEA Pflugerville campus on Saturday, April 9 at 8 a.m.

It was created by IDEA eight years ago, and the district continues to strive to be the healthiest district in the country. 

IDEA says all proceeds from the 5K and Healthy Living Expo will go towards its Healthy Kids Here initiative. 

The Healthy Living Expo will feature vendors, exhibitors and booths with information on healthy eating, diabetes, local gyms and a farmer's market with produce from IDEA campus farms.
