Get ready to set a speed record superheroes!

The 1 mile children's fun run is open to children 12 and under only. ONE parent per child may run with their small children. Parents do not have to pay or register (fun run only). Parents will receive a numbered bracelet which is their “ticket” to run with their child and/or pick up their child at the finish line parent/child meet-up corral. There will be 2 heats (races) beginning at 10:45am and 11:15am. The start location for all heats will be the parking area of Percival's Island Trail in downtown Lynchburg.
