    This is a free 13 week children's fun running program for the Anderson and surrounding area communities.

    Points are accumulated each week they are in attendance that will go towards the bike drawing.

    All races are on Tuesdays at 6:00pm. We are located at the Alex Pike Park at Shadyside Park. Address is 1320 Alexandria Pike, Anderson, IN 46012. Next to the children's playground.

    We offer a timed 1/4 mile race for under 5 yrs. And a 1 mile race for those who can run a mile. Parents are welcome and encouraged to run with their child either distance.

    We belong to the Road Runners Club of America for our insurance program. They require that we have a signed waiver from participants. Registering here allows the race director to easily assimilate participants and record your child's finish time each week. You only need to sign the waiver one time during the season. Parents, please look at the opportunities to Volunteer. The tab on the left outlines where we can use your help. We thank you in advance!

    Join us for a "For Fun Endurance Style" Race. Clock starts at 9 am and counts down to 4 hours at 1 pm. Individually or with a group you put together, see how many miles you knock out on our modified Shadyside course. We are using this as an introduction/warm-up to the 8-Hour Dream Endurance Race hosted by CRRG in mid-July (https://www.8hourdream.com/). Bring your 8-Hour team out to practice, or bring yourself and/or some friends and see what an event like this is like to participate in!

    We gather and setup at the Shadyside Activity Center (next to the Pickleball courts) off Alexandria Pike. We will run our regular Shadyside course; Backwards! We will have 2.6 mile and 1.5 mile loops available.

    There will be no scoring, no tracking; keep your own time and distance. There will be one clock counting down the 4 hours until the Warm Up is over!

    Anderson Road Runners will have a tent and grill setup with some food and a water and Gatorade aide station available. Bring your own tent and chairs if you want and we'll set up in the grass near the parking lot at the Shadyside Activity Center. Bring snacks and drinks. We are planning a tailgate/cookout-style gathering during this event.
