BACK ONCE AGAIN!!!

RACE THE COURSE 5K/10K

LEPRECHAUNS ON THE LINKS

SUPPORTING ACCESSIBILITY FOR ALL TO LMT PARKS

Back once again, join us for the 4th running of the Lower Makefield Township "Race the Course 5K & 10K" on Saturday, March 14th. This year just in time for St. Patty's Day. This event is open to all individuals and supports Lower Makefield Parks and Recreation in their continued goal to improve disability access to township parks for all individuals.

Unique about this event, it is run on the cart paths of the Makefield Highlands Golf Club in Yardley, PA. This is very special as most golf courses never allow runners or walkers on the course. If you have never played golf there, Makefield Highlands is a beautiful property residing on the former Pleasant Valley Estate Farm with history traced to the early eighteenth century.

The 5K and 1 Mile Fun Run/Walk will be contained mostly on the flatter front 9 holes of the golf course, while the 10K will start on the front 9 but finish on the back nine holes of the golf course which has a few more challenging hills.

All paying participants registered by March 1st will receive a custom designed Race the Course shirt in their preferred size and the first 200 paid registrations will also receive a custom designed Race the Course medal. Shirts are not guaranteed for those registering after March 1st. We will have a limited number of extra shirts while supplies last.

Note: We ordered extra medals - as of 3/2 we still have lots of medals and shirts available! But register now before they are gone!

We encourage everyone to wear St. Patrick's Day themed attire.

5K and 1 Mile Fun Run

Saturday, March 21, 2026

10:00 AM - Cairn University, Langhorne, PA

Raising Awareness and Support for Down Syndrome Individuals

Cairn University Athletics and RUN 12:1 Running Club are excited to once again host the Rock Your Socks 5K run/walk for Down Syndrome.

World Down Syndrome Day (WDSD) is celebrated every year on March 21st (3/21) because people with down syndrome are born with 3 copies of the 21st chromosome. And because crazy and colorful socks are a symbol of WDSD, we ask everyone to wear the craziest most colorful pair (or miss-matched pair) of socks they can during the race to help raise awareness for down syndrome.

This year's race falls on WDSD, so we will actually be running on 3/21!! Also new this year, we are awarding RACE MEDALS to all runners (instead of the traditional race shirt)! But as usual, in addition to traditional race prizes, prizes will also be awarded to those with the craziest socks at the live event.

The proceeds from this event will go toward the Cairn Student Scholarship Fund for a student planning to work with special needs individuals.

Register now for either our 5K or our family-friendly 1-mile fun run. There is also a virtual option for those who prefer or are unable to join us in person on March 21st.

So, be sure to wear your most colorful, crazy, and/or mismatched socks to raise awareness and support for Down Syndrome individuals! Special prizes for those with the craziest socks!

Elle's Angels Foundation was started in November 2021 in honor of our 5 year old daughter, Elle, who passed from an inoperable brain tumor called DIPG. Elle was a kind, compassionate and resilient, little girl who inspired many throughout her journey.

Brain cancer kills more kids than any other type, and DIPG is responsible for almost half of all pediatric brain cancer deaths. With a nearly 0% survival rate and less than 1% of federal cancer research funding earmarked for ALL types of pediatric brain cancer. Doctors and hospitals rely on DIPG families with supporters like you to help fund their cancer research efforts. Please help join us in our fight against DIPG.

All proceeds will go to Elle’s Angels Foundation, whose mission is to fund essential research to discover effective treatments for pediatric brain cancer, with a focus on DIPG. To learn more about Elle's Angels Foundation, please visit us at www.ellesangelsfoundation.org

This year's Sesame Place Classic is the 26th running of this ever-popular event.

Sponsored by the Levittown Bristol Kiwanis Club and the Bucks County Herald, the Classic will have all the usual fun, namely a featured 5K, a one-mile fun run/walk, and a kids’ sprint event.

Each year, the race includes a free, one-day admission ticket to Sesame Place for all who register. Every runner or walker gets a “finisher’s medal,’’ which proved to be quite popular in previous years. Oh, and did we mention the cool collectible race T-shirt? (Due to the need to pre-order, T-shirts are only guaranteed to those who register before April 15th)

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I push a stroller in the 5k or 1 Mile race?

Yes. A runner can push a stroller in the 5k and 1 Mile races. We ask that racers with strollers line up at the rear of the pack at the starting line for the safety of all runners.

Can I run in both the 1 Mile and the 5k races?

Yes, you may run in both. In order to be timed in both races, you’d need to register for both races. If you plan on running the 1 Mile as a warm-up, and do not need to be timed, do not wear your race bib for the 1 Mile.

Am I allowed to bring my dog to the race?

We love pets, but sadly they are not welcome at the race.

When can I use my Sesame Place pass?

The Sesame Place passes are valid from the day of the race, until September 1st. We do advise you check the Sesame Place website to check what attractions are open during your visit.

Can I give my Sesame Place pass to someone else?

Yes, you can give your pass to another person, but Sesame Place passes cannot be sold.

If I miss the race, can I get a refund?

No refunds, sorry, but know your registration helps with our cause.

When can I pick up my race packet?

Race packets can be claimed the Friday prior to the race from 4 to 8pm, and Saturday from 10am to 4pm inside the Oxford Valley Mall at the Macy’s Court. Packets can also be claimed on race day, but you should arrive at least one hour before the start time in the event that there is a line.

Can someone else pick up my race packet?

Yes, another party may pick up your race packet for you.

What if I cannot attend the race? How do I collect my race packet?

Claiming your race packet with your race bib, t-shirt, and Sesame Place pass is the responsibility of the registrant. Packets will not be delivered or mailed to any participant. Arrangements should be made by registrants to claim their packets at one of the packet pick-up times advertised.

If I register after April 15th, can I still get my free t-shirt?

Maybe. T-shirts are only guaranteed to participants who register by April 15th. Those who register after that date may be able to get a t-shirt depending on supply, and availability.

Can I exchange my t-shirt at packet pick-up if I order a size that does not fit well when I try it on?

No, sorry, you will be given the t-shirt size that you order. Our t-shirts are dry fit, and are made of 100% polyester. Please know your size before placing your order. All orders are final.

Where do I park on race day?

Runners may park for free at the lot directly across from the Sesame Place entrance. For navigational directions, use 100 Sesame Road, Langhorne, PA 19047. After 6:45 access to Sesame Road will be limited. Sesame Road is part of the course. Alternative parking can be found in lots at the Oxford Valley Mall.

Can I run with my child in the Sesame Sprint?

The Sesame Spring is a 20 yard dash specifically for children 5 and under. You can cheer your child on from the perimeter of the race area, but for the safety of all the children, you cannot run with your child unless it is medically necessary.

Is there a place to put my belongings during the race?

Runners are solely responsible for their personal property.

What if I can’t finish the race once I start?

There will be a vehicle following the runners on the course from a short distance, that will assist injured runners or those unable to make it to the finish line.

When can I buy additional discounted Sesame Place tickets?

After the race, you will receive a promotional code that will allow you to purchase the discounted tickets through Sesame Place.

What time is my race?

The 1 Mile starts at 7am. The 5k starts at 8am. The Sesame Sprint is at 9am.

Will I get a finisher medal if I register but do not participate in the race?

Sorry, no. Finisher medals are for participants only.

What does my team get for participating?

In addition to free admission into Sesame Place, a free t-shirt*, and finisher medal, teams can earn $5 per registrant, if the team has 20 or more registrants. The team with the most registrants will also receive the Sesame Spirit Award to take home!

What can I expect on race day?

Race day is fun and festive! A DJ will be playing music to pump you up before the race. Sesame Workshop characters will be available for pictures, high fives, and hugs! Levittown Bristol Kiwanis Club members will be available to assist and answer questions. Upon finishing the race, grab a water, pretzel, or banana to replenish!

Who do I go to for a problem?

Whether your problem is online, at packet pick-up, or on race day, our team of 100% volunteers will try to answer your queries and solve your problems. On race day, look for our members in green fleece jackets and orange vests.
