  • Details from event's RunSignUp.com listing:

    Run, Jog, Skip, or Dance down Main street for this 3rd annual fun run/walk put on by Shoes & Brews and the Longmont Downtown Development Authority (LDDA).

    At just around a mile this run is all ages, all abilities and completely festive!
    Before the Longmont Lights parade hits the streets, let's enjoy a peaceful main street while also raising money for our community.

    While this event is free  - we do have a $5 suggested donation per participant.  All of the proceeds go directly to Colorado Kids Belong. Colorado Kids Belong works to improve the experience and outcomes for kids in foster care by spreading broad awareness and creating meaningful engagements. We mobilize people to become foster parents and equip the community to support them through our Foster Friendly mobile app.

    Participation in the walk/run includes:

    Walk/run along Main Street with holiday lights & race bibs from Shoes & Brews to wear during the run, a goodie bag from our partners including snacks from Natural Grocers &  Hand Warmers from LoKation Real Estate - Ashlee Anderson. 

    After your race enjoy a Hot chocolate bar in the Cheba Hut parking lot along with some additional snacks and water from our partners. 
    Make sure to dress and run your best as we will have giveaways and prizes for best dressed, most lights, best family outfit, and best stroller decoration.
