Run first, mascot breakfast after! The FREE Youth Fun Run takes place on Saturday, February 21st at 9:00 am from Rick Marcotte Central School. The course is out-and-back along Market Street in South Burlington’s City Center, with ½-mile and 1-mile options. After the run, kids can warm up inside the school and hang out with Vermont’s biggest mascot celebrities at the FREE Mascot Breakfast, put on by South Burlington Recreation and Parks. Registration for the Mascot Breakfast is a separate event, therefore, there is a separate registration to participate. Space is highly limited for the mascot breakfast.
Registration (online or in person) for the Fun Run is required, check-in starts at 8:15 AM, and the Fun Run (both distances) begins promptly at 9:00 AM. Parents/guardians are encouraged to support their youth runner, but only the runner needs to register.
Course Info: The course is an out-and-back with a 1/2 mile and 1 mile option on paved and groomed sidewalks. Participants will be within view of a course monitor for the entirety of the run. Start and Finish is at the main entrance of the Rick Marcotte Central School. Parents/guardians may accompany a participant but must start from the back of the pack.
We require a minimum of 25 children registered in order to have the event. Vermont's weather can be highly variable. In order to provide a safe experience, this event is subject to cancellation. Please stay up to date with any emails we send out and our instagram.
