The Congo River Mini Marathon is an event unlike any other and kids are sure to look forward to coming back. So far, over 1,000 children and parents have participated in our last races.

We run and come together on Sunday, May 5, 2024, running or walking 2K or 5K. Each child will be rewarded with a finisher's medal and a t-shirt as well as gift prizes from our sponsors.

With the Congo River Mini Marathon, we aim to create an atmosphere that encourages and promotes a healthy lifestyle among our young people in a non-competitive, goal-oriented setting. Through running, we show our children that they can accomplish more than they ever thought possible, put them on the path to healthier living, and teach them why it's important to stay physically fit. active.

Register your kids and yourself and spread the word to friends, families and schools across town. Let’s make this years mini marathon the best one yet!
