CCS - Family Fun Run & Walk

Lace up your shoes for a heartwarming start to your Saturday with the CCS - Family Fun Run & Walk, taking place on April 4, 2026, in Hutchinson, KS. This vibrant community event, hosted at Central Christian School's campus at 1910 E 30th Ave, invites participants of all ages and fitness levels to join a celebration of faith, fitness, and fellowship. The event features a scenic 0.6-mile loop around the campus, welcoming both competitive runners vying for the inaugural "Golden Sneaker" award by completing the most laps in an hour, and recreational walkers who can enjoy the course at their own pace. Strollers are welcome, though participants should be prepared for varied terrains throughout the loop.

The morning begins with registration at 8:00 a.m., followed by a devotional at 8:15 a.m., before competitive categories kick off at 8:30 a.m., and recreational walkers start at 8:32 a.m. With typical race day conditions seeing highs around 68°F and lows around 39°F, and only a 10% chance of precipitation, it promises to be a pleasant spring morning for activity. Participants should note that water and snacks will not be provided on the course, so planning accordingly is encouraged.

Beyond the run, the CCS - Family Fun Run & Walk fosters a strong sense of community spirit, culminating in a post-race gathering for pancakes and fellowship from 9:00 to 10:00 a.m. in the school's fitness center. While the event is free to enter, a suggested donation of $25 per participant helps support Central Christian School, and early registrants receive a commemorative keychain. Come and enjoy a memorable day designed for families and neighbors to connect and celebrate together.
