CASA Superhero Run
About this race
Get ready to unleash your inner superhero at the CASA Superhero Run on Saturday, October 25, 2025, at the Park at Riverwalk! Whether you're a seasoned runner or just looking for a fun, family-friendly event, this race is for you.
Join fellow heroes and villains as we run, walk, and fly in support of children in foster care. Choose from a 2K, 5K, or 10K. The 5K and 10K races are officially timed, perfect for runners aiming for a personal best, while the 2K is an untimed fun run for those who want to enjoy the excitement at their own pace.
