Stay in the patriotic spirit as this Monday’s Family Fun Run will be all about the red, white and blue

ROCK SPRINGS – Although it may take place a few days after the Fourth of July, keep in the patriotic spirit and enjoy the next Family Fun Run this Monday.

This Monday, head out to Northpark Elementary where the next Family Fun Run will get underway at 6 p.m. Each run has a theme and so far, we have been invaded by zombies and have witnessed the ugliest in sweaters and shirts this community has to offer. On Monday, the run will be all about the red, white and blue as the theme will be a patriotic run.

Whether you’re a beginner or competitive runner, the Rock Springs Recreation Department is again providing fun, low-key run/walk that’s safe and social.  The run is typically no more than 50 minutes, although 50 is not a magic number.  The department said they try to have runs go “out and back” so that everyone can start and finish together and run at their own pace with others of similar ability.

New runners may only want to run a mile or two; experienced athletes might do a tempo run.  This is geared towards families and people of all ages.  Walking is also encouraged.  There is no fee to participate.

An adult must be present for children 12 and under.

 

Future runs include:

July 21, Century West Park, Suds, Slip and Slide run
