    Some races test your endurance.

    Welcome to The Great Fool’s Run,

    a Mystery Distance Race where the course could be anywhere from 1 mile to 10K.

    The distance?

    A secret… until race day.

    Participants will receive their official race distance on April 1st,

    with the challenge ranging from 1 mile to 10K.

    is not knowing what’s coming.
