3rd Annual Kids in Capes 5K + Fun Run

This year’s event brings a flat 5K route that begins at Thompson Park in Upper Arlington (UA) and leads through North UA to loop around Reed Road Park and back to Thompson. The event will again host a family-friendly, post-race party with bounce houses, games, an interactive art mural, a silent auction and bake sale. The Callahan Murphy Hare Foundation is looking forward to this event helping CMHF surpass an incredible $300,000 in research grants in just 3 years, thanks to the support this community has enabled us to do in such a short time.

5K and 1-Mile Race Registration includes: Race Shirt, 3×3 acrylic photo frame, swag bag, coffee, water, banana, access to post-race activities (bounce houses, yard games and face painting), including participation in Make a Splash for Research (updated dunk tank fundraiser) on-site for a chance to splash a member of Nationwide Children’s Oncology Team.
Kids 5 & Under can register for an untimed race experience at a discounted rate that gives access to the Post-Race activities: Bounce houses, yard games and face painting, interactive art mural and participation in Make a Splash for Research (updated dunk tank fundraiser) on-site for a chance to splash a member of Nationwide Children’s Oncology Team. They will receive a wrist band in their registered family member’s swag bag at packet pick-up.

We can’t wait to see you for another beautiful and meaningful event that helps fill the gap for pediatric cancer research funding. Register today! Early Bird Registration through July 31.
