Ken-Ya Run It? 5K Run & 1 Mile Walk
The Ken-Ya Run It? 5K Run & 1 Mile Walk is a community sports event held at Sugar Hollow Park in Bristol, Virginia. The event serves as a fundraiser for the Bristol Hub mission team, with proceeds supporting thirty orphans in Embu, Kenya, by providing education, supplies, and food.
Participants can choose from two distinct events:
- 5K Run/Walk
- 1 Mile Fun Run/Walk
The course is open to runners, walkers, and wheelchair athletes. While bicycles, skateboards, and rollerblades are prohibited, baby strollers are permitted if positioned at the back of the starting pack. Well-behaved, socialized dogs on leashes are also allowed to participate. Packet pickup and late registration are available on the morning of the event at the park.
Timing services for the race are provided by We Run Events using B-tags attached to the athlete's bib. To ensure safety, participants using headphones are asked to remain alert to traffic patterns and course directions. Results are made available after the race through onsite kiosks or digital QR codes. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
