From the Organizer
Bring your family and friends to come support your community in the Royal Family Superhero one-mile Fun Run, 5K and 10K! Royal Family Kids (RFK) is a ministry that organizes a summer camp for foster children in our area. They provide life changing moments for children of abuse and neglect, helping them flourish and begin trusting adults again. For a week of the summer they get to have fun, learn about Jesus, and make meaningful connections with other children and camp leaders.
Foster children often find themselves on paths of academic failure, drug abuse, teen pregnancy, sex trafficking, homelessness and incarceration. Royal Family Kids is an organization with a goal to interrupt these cycles and show children a different path. A highlight of the camp is "everybody's birthday party" where every child gets celebrated with a party complete with games, cake, and presents. We know that one week can make a difference in the life of child!
Your participation in this event provides you the opportunity to be a true Superhero. Your entire registration fee goes directly to RFK, Pasco to help pay the way for these children to attend camp.
All are welcome to come dressed as your favorite superhero, and participate in the One Mile Fun Run, and costume contest. At the start/finish line there will be food truck vendors, face painting, balloon making, and music! Awards and recognition will be given to the top 3 finishers of all events in each gender. The 10K participants will be greeted with a medal at the finish line.
All of the races will start at the Columbia Park bandshell near the Playground of Dreams in Kennewick and run west along the river towards Richland. All races will be an out and back, and there will be aid stations at the 1 mile, 5k, and 10K turn around points with water and gatorade hydration.

About This Sport
Endurance Grid is here to help you understand the sport, decide if it's the right fit, and learn how to prepare. For course distances, logistics, and race-day specifics, always defer to the race organizer's event page.
The 10K is the distance where running stops feeling like a starting point and starts feeling like a sport. Long enough to require a real training block. Short enough that race day is fully manageable for a first-timer who's put in the work.
Race day energy at a 10K is community at its best — strangers cheering you by name, people moving toward the same goal, an atmosphere that solo training can't replicate. It's fast enough that you'll spend the whole race pushing rather than managing your effort.
This is also the distance that builds the base for everything else. Most athletes who go on to run half marathons, do triathlons, or compete in HYROX started here. What you need: running shoes fitted to your stride, a training plan, and the race on your calendar. The registration is what makes the deadline real.
How long to train: 4–8 weeks for most fitness levels.
From 5K to marathon, running races are the most accessible entry point into endurance sport. There's a distance for every fitness level and a community at every start line.
