FOR KIDS
We love to kick off every race day with a fun and energetic Kids Run, designed especially for our youngest runners. This shortened course is the perfect way to introduce children to the joy of running in a safe, supportive, and exciting environment. Beyond just crossing the finish line, running teaches kids valuable life skills—like how to pace themselves, build endurance, practice consistently, and develop patience along the way. The Kids Run isn’t about competition, it’s about learning, growing, and most importantly, having fun. We invite all kids to lace up their sneakers and join Becca for this special tradition.
Each year, the Becca Pizzi 5K proudly awards scholarships to local students who embody the same passion, perseverance, and community spirit that Becca represents. These scholarships not only recognize outstanding achievements in the classroom and on the track, but also support the next generation of leaders as they chase their dreams. By investing in our youth, the race continues its mission of giving back, ensuring that the impact of this event goes far beyond the finish line.
Huge congratulations to 2026 recipients:
