The event is a fundraiser for the Leopold Parent/Faculty Organization (PFO). Our purpose is to ensure that parents and school faculty work together in support of the children of Leopold Elementary.
The 1 mile event is open to anyone who wishes to participate. Medals will be awarded to the top 3 boys and girls in each grade level kindergarten through 5th grade. Athletes will be sent out in waves, in one minute intervals, 5th graders first, then 4th, etc.
The course is a one-mile loop around the Leopold Elementary school grounds. The starting line and finish line are near the entrance to the cafeteria. Click here to view the 1 Mile Course.
When you're done running, be sure to head into the cafeteria for food and entertainment!
The 5km Community Fun Run is also open to anyone who wishes to participate. Medals will be awarded to the top 3 male and female runners. The 5k run will have a mass start (1 wave) at 12:30pm.
The course shares the same schoolground loop around Leopold Elementary as the 1 mile event, and continues with a loop through the Arbor Hills neighborhood. Same starting and finish line as the 1 mile run. Click here to view the 5k Course.
The awards ceremony will commence once the last 1mi participant has crossed the finish line.
