This isn't just any fun run, it's a Halloween themed fun run, which means participants are encouraged to wear a costume!

Why a fundraiser for these non-profit organizations?
These are organizations that we believe are doing amazing work in our city and around the world. Since the hit of the pandemic, The Commons has struggled to have the financial resources to maintain donations to these programs in the amounts we would like. Our hope is that this event allows us to support these organizations and the great work they do.
