A free Kids Fun Run for ages 7 and under follows the main event; kids’ dash distances vary by age and range from 50 yards to 200 yards.

Paid participants in the School Spirit Run receive a custom finisher medal and a 100% ringspun soft cotton unisex race t-shirt (register by January 15, 2026 to help guarantee the requested size). Amenities noted include SeaWorld theme park entertainment along the course and free race-day parking. Awards are planned for the top three overall male and female finishers, plus age-leveled and spirit-related prizes (most school spirit, best mascot, best rivalry challenge, school with largest registration).
