🎉 Welcome to the Cupcake Run!

Welcome to the 10th year of the Cupcake Run! To celebrate, we've got some new (and old!) treats to announce.

🎽 Color Scheme

  • Veterans' Choice: Race veterans know we launch a new color scheme each year. This year, there are three featured colors and you can choose which color you want for your shirt! Are you a "heather purple," "jade dome," or "antique heliconia" type of person? And what the heck is "heliconia"?! You can preview the shirt color choices when you register.

🏅 Retro Medals

  • Medals Returning: The Cupcake Run bling is always a big hit, and this year we celebrate ten years by bringing back several previous medal designs! The retro designs will be "plussed" to acknowledge the 10-year anniversary. Which medal design will you be awarded when you cross the finish line?

👥 New Teams!

  • Team Formation: We encourage participants to form a team and appoint a team captain who will name and register the team and share the team name with other participants.
  • Mini Grants: As a way to give back to schools and promote a healthy community, every team associated with a school will receive a $100 mini grant for each ten members on their team. The mini grants will be used to purchase recess and P.E. equipment.
  • Generous Support: This new opportunity is made possible with the generous support of former PSFTC board members Mrs. Andrea Kuipers and Vic and Grayce Lechtenberg.

🔔 Important Note

Please note that inventory for medals and race shirts is set in August, so register by then to guarantee your receipt.
