On April 25th and 26th, 2 teams will be taking on Ragnar Trail Richmond at Pocahontas State Park. Each team will complete 122.4 miles in a relay-style race. This will not only be a physical feat but also a mental and emotional one as every team member will run at least one leg at night in the dark, on limited sleep. These teams are even more impressive because not only are they running around the clock, they are also raising money for Kids On The Move, a program of Sports Backers.

Kids On The Move supports youth running and fitness clubs in the Richmond region, giving school aged kids an opportunity to train for and participate in a local race over the course of a fall and spring season. Kids On The Move provides resources for their coaches to foster a safe and fun environment to build students' love of physical activity. The program also helps youth overcome barriers to participation by ensuring all of the clubs are free of cost, offering complimentary race entries, covering the cost of transportation to and from the events, providing team t-shirts free of cost, and even outfitting youth in need with new running shoes.

Please consider supporting these three teams by making a donation to Kids On The Move.
