The DIAPER DASH returns! The competition for our littlest athletes will make you cheer and chuckle. Enter your child under the age of one for the Dash competition. Your child will compete on the professional Richmond Kicker's soccer field along the signature Dash mat-track prior to the 5K start. All little participants will "race" by crawling four yards towards the glory of winning their first race! There is NO charge for the Dash; however, we do ask for a small donation if you feel moved. The Diaper Dash begins at 8:00 AM.

NEW in 2025 - The Toddler Trot! We cannot ignore the children ages one and two. The toddlers will race 20 yards down the field along the professional soccer field (weather permitting) towards the finish line. Fans will cheer them on as they participate in their first running competition. There is NO charge for the Trot; however, we do ask for a small donation if you feel moved. The Toddler Trot will begin immediately after the Diaper Dash at 8:00am.

The popular Caped Colon Crusader kid’s fun run is back! Children under the age of six are encouraged to wear their favorite cape and show how fierce and fast they are as they sprint towards the finish line. There is NO charge for the sprint; however, we do ask for a small donation if you feel moved. The Caped Colon Crusader fun run begins at 7:45 AM near the press box inside City Stadium.
