From the organizer

The Kiwanis Club of Sioux Falls presents its annual fundraiser with a new name and distance options: Lace Up for Kids 5k, 10 Mile, & Bake Sale to support kids and youth in our community.

In an effort to keep costs down, and save you from another t-shirt you'll never wear, we will not be giving any swag away for this event. To offset that, we have kept registration costs low and hope to maximize how much money we can raise to help kids in Sioux Falls!

Come get your steps in with this fun run/walk and follow it up with a bake sale or just stop out for some sweet treats without running!
