Lace Up For Learning is a nonprofit that was started in 2024 by five 8th grade friends who believe in the value of community, the importance of education, and the power of running.
The mission behind this annual event is to raise money for under resourced classrooms across the greater Sacramento area. In the first two years, participants, donors, and sponsors raised more than $30,000 -- reaching thousands of students, K-12.
The 5k and 10k courses run on the beautiful, flat paved Parkway Trails in Folsom. The Kids Fun Run includes obstacle elements and takes place on a large grass field. Participants of all levels are welcome - from serious runners to community supporters pushing strollers or walking their dogs.
We look forward to meeting you on race day - and we appreciate your support for our mission.
