Run for Kicks

The Run for Kicks is an inaugural athletic event held in Van Buren, Ohio. The event features multiple course types and distances to accommodate different preferences. The start and finish lines for the races are located at the Van Buren Sports Complex.

The event offers three distinct distances:

  • 10 km trail run
  • 5 km road race
  • 1 mile fun run

The 10 km trail run takes place within Van Buren State Park. This course is a natural trail surface that includes tree roots and mud. The 5 km distance is a standard road race. Both the road and trail events begin simultaneously.

This event is organized by the Van Buren Youth Soccer Association to support their programs. Participants who complete their registration by late May are guaranteed an event shirt. For those registering after the deadline, a limited supply of shirts may be available for purchase on the day of the event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
