Ira Pettle brings the kind of joyful, big‑hearted energy that makes kids feel like absolute stars. We’re thrilled to welcome him to the race, where he’ll be performing a special interactive kids’ show packed with laughter and movement. Ira’s ability to spark creativity and confidence in young people is unmatched, and his performances always leave families smiling. If you’ve got little ones joining you on race day, make sure they catch Ira’s set.

Free! But during registration, we offer parents the opportunity to donate to Butterfly Support Network, a local organization that supports families dealing with pregnancy and infant loss.
