Event Description
Join us for our first Fun Run!
The 2.5 mile run spans from FCPL, down 4th Ave, across the park, on the riverfront trail, and back up the Armstrong Trail, with a shorter (1 mile) option of turning back at the park. Participants can run, jog, walk, skip, dance - however you want to move! Better yet, join as your favorite book, movie, or other character for a chance to win a prize for best character costume after the run!

Competitve runners are encouraged to use the Fun Run as a training opportunity!
