Enjoy the rockin’ music and imaginative cheers from the Spirit Groups along the scenic, tree-lined medians. Soak in the cheers from thousands of partying spectators. Celebrate people watching at its best as costumed runners and walkers mingle among the 35,000 participants. Then join the awesome post race party in Monroe Park.

It’s all part of the Ukrop’s Monument Avenue 10k, named one of the best running races in the country by USA Today!

Fit For Life kids running program underway

The Fit For Life Kids Challenge is a free incentive-based fitness program for elementary school-aged children throughout the metro Richmond area. The program encourages youth to run 26 miles over the course of a 10-week period.

The program is flexible and allows for teachers, volunteers, and parents to take the initiative to get kids started in the program.

Participants in the Fit For Life Kids Challenge track their progress on a Running Log (coloring sheet.) Students receive incentive prizes at the 5, 10, 15, and 20 mile marks along their way. These incentive items are coupons that are attached to the coloring log and are redeemable at Sports Backers Stadium or through your teacher at your school if your school is participating in the Kids Challenge. Details.
