Kylie Rose's Run - Akron, Ohio - Running

The Kylie Rose's Run is a Running race in Akron, Ohio consisting of a 1 Mile and 5K.

Kylie Rose's Run is celebrating its 3rd Annual 5K event. Kylie Rose Jacobs, at the age of five, was diagnosed with cancer on January 6, 2015 and has since been treated at Akron Children's Hospital. This year's race proceeds will benefit Akron Children's Hospital Childhood Blood and Cancer Fund. The Childhood Blood and Cancer Fund supports patients, their families, research, treatment, supplies, and any/all needs for the entire department.

Please note that this race has raised in excess of $32,000 that has been donated to Akron Children's Hospital!

The event will take place in the Copley High School football stadium. The 5K will start and end in the stadium. There will be family/kid activities held in the stadium during all runs. We had so many families and kids participate in the Family Fun Run last year! It was so fun and we learned a lot. We will be having a Competitive 1 Mile Run as well as a Citizens 1 Mile. You may decide the day of the event which run your family wants to participate in.
