Event Description

Welcome to the annual RUN WITH THE LIONS 5K & the free 100 meter Lion Cub Dash!

Join us back where it all began on a scenic course through St. James Forest Preserve.  Feel free to race, run, or walk this chip-timed event, where every paid participant will receive a Tech-material Tee Shirt, a Finisher's Medal, as well as a goody bag chock full of swag!

The 100 meter Lion Cub Dash is free of charge and open to anyone age 13 and under.  All participants will receive a participant ribbon to commemorate their achievement!

In keeping with our mission to "Bring Friends and Families Together Through Fitness," we are offering these great events at unbelievable prices!

Proceeds from this event support the Longwood Elementary PTA.

The course at St. James Forest Preserve is a mixed course with crushed limestone paths, grass, and rolling hills.  Due to course terrain, it is not wheelchair or stroller accessible.
