From the Organizer
The 11th Annual Rexy Run/Walk is back on August 15th, 2026!
We will be offering our 5K and NEW 10K course.
The Rexy Run/Walk begins and ends at Broken Arrow Park, a picturesque city park, in southeast Lawrence and will wind through the Baker Wetlands on a combination of paved concrete trails and fine gravel trails. The Rexy Run is stroller and dog friendly.
The Rexy Run is hosted by BabyJay's Legacy of Hope, a 501C based out of Lawrence that helps families with children who are fighting cancer. We help offset the extra expenses families have that are not covered by health insurance.
