Race Overview:

McMahon Ryan Child Advocacy Center's Step Up 4 Kids 5K & Kids Fun Run helps close out National Child Abuse Prevention month each April, taking place on the last Sunday of April each year. All funds raised through this event directly benefit local non-profit, McMahon Ryan Child Advocacy Center, who works hard to fight against child abuse in Onondaga County. The 9th annual Step Up 4 Kids will be on Sunday, April 26th at Middle Ages Brewery. Following the race, there will be an after party hosted with live music and food trucks. Join us for a morning of fun for the entire family! All participants get a bib tear-off coupon that gets them either a free beverage from Middle Ages Brewery or a free ice cream cone from Gannon's!
