Run 4 The Rolls

Run 4 The Rolls is a community running event at 4168 Southpoint Parkway in Jacksonville, Florida. It was created to remember a University of North Florida senior who died after a running accident and to continue the family tradition of sharing homemade cinnamon rolls. An online campaign launched in 2024 drew participants from 27 states and eight countries and collectively recorded over 4,600 miles.

The event offers the following distances:

• 5K
• One mile

Auld & White Constructors is the title sponsor. Net proceeds from the race will be donated to the ACE Mentor Program of Northeast Florida. The ACE Mentor Program connects high school students with professionals in architecture, engineering, and construction to provide mentoring and hands on exposure to real world projects.
