2024 Miles 4 Mentors Free Fun Run Series
For ages Pre-K to 5th Grade
No prior running experience needed.
Come, Run, Have Fun!

The Miles 4 Mentors Fun Run Series consists of four to five Fun Run events held each summer season in the Willmar, MN area. Children are invited to run with their friends and family on our pre-set courses throughout the city. There is more to our Fun Runs than just running. Each event also offers fun activities, mentoring opportunities, and camaraderie. Runners in grades K-5 will also be provided with a t-shirt, medal, and other great swag depending on the event. Each event coincides with a fun community activity, allowing families to take part after the run.

Miles 4 Mentors proudly announces the 2024 Kids Fun Run Series!

Willmar Stingers Invitational Thursday, June 13th
This mini-event and fundraiser kicks off our Fun Run Series with the Willmar Stingers, our home team in the Northwoods League. Enjoy a night of baseball with us, meet Barry, and run the bases at Baker Field. At this event, we give away tennis shoes to several local children in need. The event is also a fundraiser for Miles 4 Mentors. Fellow fans will be able to make financial donations that will be matched by local businesses. High school track and cross-country team members also join in on the fun and will be running a relay race to see if they can finish their race before the last out. Our Stinger’s event is also a chance to celebrate Global Running Day, held on June 1st each year. Kids under 14 get in free with a paid adult. Tickets must be picked up at the ticket booth no later than 5:55. The run will begin at 6 PM.

We have 4 awesome runs happening throughout the summer:
June 13th – Stingers Invitational and M4M Fundraiser
