About the race
Run 4 The Rolls is a community road event in Jacksonville, Florida, held on Saturday, October 24, 2026, with net proceeds benefiting the ACE Mentor Program of Northeast Florida. The race began as a way to remember a University of North Florida senior who died after a running accident and to honor a family tradition of homemade cinnamon rolls; an Instagram initiative launched in October 2024 gathered participants across 27 states and 8 countries and recorded over 4,600 miles.
Distances:
- 5K
- One mile
The title sponsor is Auld & White Constructors, a Jacksonville-based construction firm. Post-race refreshments include cinnamon rolls, coffee, and other items for finishers. Additional on-site activities are a nail driving competition, a kid zone, and a petting zoo. Parking is available around the start and finish area, which are located in the Auld & White parking lot off Southpoint Drive North.
Entry fees vary by date and by distance, with lower rates listed for earlier registration and higher rates on race day; specific price tiers are published for the 5K and one-mile events. Packet pickup with bib and shirt is scheduled at 1st Place Sports locations on Thursday, October 22 and Friday, October 23, and unclaimed packets will be available at the race site on race day.
