Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation: The Lemon Run

• The Lemon Run 5K:- Run 3.1 Miles

The Lemon Run 5K Run/Walk and Kids' Dash is held annually in November at Memorial Hall in Fairmount Park.  The 5K, which raises funds and awareness for childhood cancer, features families, businesses and individuals who all want to support ALSF in their quest to find better treatments and cures for all kids with cancer.

In addition to the more than 2,000 runners and walkers who complete the 3.1 mile course, inspirational childhood cancer heroes and their families have the opportunity to participate in a mini version of the run/walk providing inspiration to all in attendence.  Designed to be a fun family event, a kids' dash preceds the actual race enabling even the youngest of supporters to show their support in the fight against childhood cancer.

The course is mostly flat, although there are a few small hills.  Here is the link to the course map that you will be running/walking.  http://www.alexslemonade.org/campaign/lemon-run-2010/course-map
