MentorArea. You can set up a “campsite” with your UltraRunning Gear and your friends! This will be a really laid-back day where you can run or walk as much as you want and allow the kids to visit with you, take photos with you, and (yes) get your autograph! Bring a Sharpie! (seriously.)

MentorRun Times. Exactly the same times as Run4Kids…8:00 am-3:00 pm (a total of 6 hours) You can start and stop any time. Remember, the goal is to be there for and with the kids. Have FUN! PLAY! Show our kids that running can be crazy fun!

More information about the Quilt below.

  • The Run 4 Kids 24-Hour Ultramarathon and Relay is being held on March 18-19, 2011. It will start at 9pm on March 18.
  • This race is being held in parallel with the Run 4 Kids Walk/Jog-a-thon and Community Festival. The festival will start on March 19 starting at 8am – approximately half way through the race.
  • Last year there were 3,000 attendees at the festival. So that means that everyone who is running in the race will get the emotional boost of running with the kids – the actual ones we are trying to encourage!
  • We have just opened up RELAYS! This change brings the R4K24 within reach of most any runner/walker. Please mention this to your non-ultra running friends.
  • To show their appreciation, the 100 Mile Club® is offering a 100 Mile Club® quilt for the runner who raises the most money. The quilt has been handmade from 100 Mile Club® T-Shirts – the same ones worn by the kids! This is a one-of-a-kind quilt!
