Grady's Superhero Run : Dorchester, IA
Grady's Superhero Run is a memorial, community-focused running event held in Dorchester, Iowa. The event includes an in-person family-friendly 5K and a kid's fun run, a virtual 5K option, and a t-shirt-only purchase option that does not include a race bib or medal. Race entry fees are listed as $35 for race entries and $25 for the t-shirt-only option.
The in-person portion is hosted in the yard of Knotty Marie's on Waterloo Creek Drive. The fun run route heads west on Waterloo Creek Drive for approximately 1.5 miles before looping back to the starting spot. After the run, on-site activities include a bounce house, kids' games, prize giveaways, a DJ, and other entertainment. A light meal will be served on a free will donation basis.
Proceeds from the event are divided between families experiencing medical issues and a memorial scholarship at local schools. The event also aims to raise awareness for a rare cancer and to honor the memory of a local child. Registration windows and other administrative details are provided by the organizer.
