The Flynn's Flyers 5k Run/Walk

The Central Falls School District is proud to announce that year three of the Flynn's Flyers 5k run/walk race will take place on Saturday, September 26, 2026 in Central Falls Rhode Island.  The CFSD sponsored event is in memory of our long time colleague, friend, coach, and educator Ms. Kelly Flynn who suddenly passed away in the spring of 2023.  Lets run together to honor the legacy of Kelly.  All funds raised at this event will go towards the Girls on the Run CFSD afterschool program.  Fly high, Ms. Flynn and good luck to all the runners involved.  The race will start promptly at 9:00am at Yip Field with a short speaking engagement beginning at around 8:40am.  Runners may start the check-in process at the starting line as early as 7:45a. The race will start and end at Yip Field in Central Falls with parking located a short distance from the starting line. Participants choose if they want to complete 3 loops of the mixed terrain scenic course to eventually complete the 3.1 mile race course.    We encourage both runners and walkers to register for the event.  Due to safety issues and the course design, dogs and baby carriages are not allowed. All participants will receive a t-shirt and race medal.  At the conclusion of the race, there will be light refreshments for runners.  We encourage family and friends to cheer runners on throughout the course.  This is a rain or shine event.
