2023 Sunflower Elementary Community Fun Run/Walk

The purpose of this non-competitive race is to bring the Sunflower Elementary and Lawrence community together to support health, wellness, and connection. The race start will take place at Sunflower Elementary School in the beautiful Lawrence, KS, and consist of a loop circling the Sunflower and Southwest Middle School property that is partially off-road on grass and partially on paved sidewalk. Participants can run/walk from one to three loops based on preference, and volunteers will be present to help with route directing. The finish line of the race is on the Southwest Middle School Track.  A t-shirt is included in the entry fee, and t-shirts can be picked up at Sunflower the morning of the race from 7:30 to 8:45 am. Payment can also be made in person via check, cash, or PayPal the morning of the race with a t-shirt included while supplies last.

We are excited to add a "Tot Trot" to our event line-up this year! 

What is a "Tot Trot," you ask?!  It's a pre-race mini-run for kiddos ages 4 or 5 and under (not yet kindergarten age). These kiddos will have the opportunity to run one lap of the Southwest Middle School track at 9 am prior to the start of the official Sunflower Fun Run.  The Tot Trot is a free event.
