(WSYR-TV) — For those who may be looking for something to do now that the weather is getting warmer, maybe consider getting your steps in to help you prepare for the Syracuse WorkForce Run in June! This year, the Syracuse WorkForce run will follow the same standards as in the past but has added a special beneficiary for proceeds raised during the event.
