Race Recap By Nancy Wardell:

I completed the Kylie Rose 5k run this afternoon in Copley, Ohio. I enjoyed seeing Veronica Judith and Mickey Rzymek before and after the race! This race is very welcoming to everyone who wants to participate! Tons of family fun activities including bouncy houses, balloon animals, pizza and snacks, and much much more before and after the race! Congratulations to Veronica who placed second in her age group and thanks to Mickey who is always very welcoming to every event! It was great to visit both of them during this event! I finished at 29:59 with a pace of 9:39 and 6th in my age group, which is the best I’ve done at this event in a few years, so I’m pleased with it! Definitely recommend this race to my teammates and those with little ones!

Race Recap By Brittany Kiehl:

A local race that supports the Akron Children’s Hospital. There is both an in-person and virtual option. The Family Fun Run is a non-competitive one-mile run/walk. It is very family friendly. Throughout the duration of the 5K/ Fun Run, there are fun activities on the football field for children of all ages (bounce houses, face painting, snow cones, card making, Bags of Love stuffing, golf demo, etc.). Every participant recieves a soft shirt. It has a late afternoon start time so it was hot weather to race in.
