Organizer's Description

Join runners and walkers to take on 15K in the 2026 THREE-race Challenge!!

Adults and kids running and walking for Brevard's families.  Supporting Brevard County children and families takes an entire community of people working together for the better good.  It also takes awareness and active participation.  All proceeds will benefit three Brevard-based organizations that provide funding, resources, and other assistance for children and their families.
 
The race series consists of:
  • Tooth Trot 5K on January 24, 2026
  • Brevard PALS 5K Run/Walk for Autism Awareness on February 21, 2026
  • Brianna Marie Foundation 5K on Feb 28, 2026
  • Fantastic medals will be awarded to all race series registrants as well as special awards for 1st, 2nd and 3rd combined 3-race time for female and male category... but more importantly you will be supporting 3 important non-profit charities all located right here in Brevard County.  These three races have been working together for the past 7 years to help children and their families in Brevard County and beyond.
 
Virtual Run/Walk Option:  Can’t participate in person for these races?  Sign up for our VIRTUAL RUN option and we will mail you the Series Finisher Medal at the end of March!  Thanks for your participation in helping many children and their families!
(If you are interested in being a race series sponsor and showing your commitment to our community - please contact the "Race for the Kids Challenge" director: David Scholl at RFTKinfo@gmail.com).
