About this race
Ram Council Foundation CD Fun Run
Event Overview
The inaugural Ram Council Foundation CD Fun Run will be held at the New Canaan (CT) High School Track — a safe surface with no asphalt, concrete, or potholes on Saturday, November 7, 2026
Run or walk as many laps as you can in 14 minutes and 48 seconds (the equivalent in inches of the circumference of a Compact Disc). Runners and walkers will be in separate lanes. Music for all generations will be played throughout the event.
Participants can register online and check in early at the New Canaan Public Library on Thursday, November 5, 4-6 p.m. and Friday November 6, 3-5 p.m. and then on race day on the New Canaan Track starting at 8 a.m.
All proceeds will go toward the Ram Council Foundation.
The Ram Council Foundation is a New Canaan–based nonprofit that provides 7th–12th grade students with substance‑free activities, leadership opportunities, and community engagement to promote healthy decision‑making

Lap Tracking
Each entrant is responsible for keeping track of their total laps run. The race will provide volunteers if participants need assistance with lap counting. The best approach is to bring a companion who can keep count from the bleachers. Lap sheets will be provided, and each lap counter must confirm the number of whole laps with the runner after the race and record it on the lap sheet.
