It is dedicated to the memory of Don Ritchie, a long time Tamalpa Runner and Marin County educator, who died of pancreatic cancer in 2009. The walk/run event is a fund-raiser for pancreatic cancer research at the UCSF Medical Center. Other beneficiaries include the Marin County high school athletic programs: the MCAL Track and Field Championships, the MCAL Cross Country Championships, and the San Rafael Twilight Relays.Youth Track Races3The Youth Track Races are open to all kids age 12 or under. Distances are chosen to be appropriate for each age group, starting with a 50 yard dash for toddlers accompanied by a parent, up to a mile run for the older kids. One $5 entry fee entitles a child to as many events as desired. It's fun to be part of and fun to watch! A great photo-op, too. All kids get runner numbers, participation ribbons, and other cool souvenirs. Register your kids in advance by mail, online, or on race day.
