Fun fun run
Beautiful location in Manito Park with 5K and 1.4 mile options. You get to see most of the park at the right time of the year.

A family tradition!
I love this event sooo much! My daughter and I run it every year. Every time I put on my shirt from a previous race, I'm flooded with wonderful father's day memories. Whether you have kids or not, this is a great race--beautiful course, and an amazing cause.
Dad's Day Dash is AWESOME
I really look forward to the Dad's Day Dash each year. I have participated the past four years along with family members and co-workers. The race is very well organized, the course is great, and the overall event is family friendly. I strongly recommend this awesome event that benefits an amazing organization in our community!
