Event Description

We are excited to host UrbanLife’s 9th Annual City Heights Runners 5K and Kids’ Fun Run on Saturday, February 26th, 2022 at North Chollas Community Park. Our last event was just weeks before the pandemic lockdown in early 2020!  We are excited to get back to promoting health, community spirit, and wholesome fun, while supporting our year-round youth physical development efforts in City Heights. 

UrbanLife's Physical Development initiative, City Heights Runners, provides first time exposure to running and a team environment as a means to develop positive friendships and personal resilience and character, as well as to enhance the overall health and well-being of student-athletes in one of San Diego’s most vulnerable communities.  Come join us for a morning of wholesome fitness in a community environment and help us advance the lives of children in City Heights!
