Come race with Fast Rabbits all summer long!
One of the most frequent questions we get about Youth Running is "What are some kid friendly races that have a lot of kids running?"
While we can always recommend any Race Penguin event, we thought to ourselves: there should be a kid-centered event. One where kids could come and try out running events if they were new to it, or challenge themselves to run further or faster than they had before. Maybe even get ready for their cross country season in the fall!
We have a loop course at Glacier Ridge Metro Park. The races will start at the Dog Park area of the park (Google Maps pin here).
Registration tables open at 5:15 PM (registration and PPU will be manned through 7:30 PM).
Yes, you can! However, only 1 parent of a registered athlete can run with them at a time due to safety limitations. Adults should stay off the course as much as possible and let the kids have their fun!
Packet pick-up will be at the Fleet Feet Lewis Center location (Google Maps address here).
We will have race day registration and packet pick-up! If registering on-site on race day, bring your phone and/or credit card to sign up.
Athletes can choose their race distance but should inform the Race Penguin timing staff immediately if they need to switch distances after starting.
Bring a used piece of athletic equipment to any of the races, and receive a portion of your race fee refunded!
We're partnering with Leveling the Playing Field, a wonderful organization that collects new and lightly used athletic equipment to support youth sports in under-resourced communities.
