Run For Kids Challenge

The Run for Kids Challenge is a fundraising event held at Oak Mountain State Park, designed to support Smile-A-Mile, an organization dedicated to helping families affected by childhood cancer. This event features a 12-hour challenge and a 10K race, with participants completing a scenic 3.4-mile loop. The challenge encourages runners to raise additional donations, with all proceeds beyond basic expenses going directly to Smile-A-Mile.

A new addition for 2024 is the Kids Half, a free 1/2 mile race for children. The event promotes community involvement and aims to provide hope and support to those facing the challenges of childhood cancer. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
