Event summary

Join us for the 3rd Annual #HonorConnor event on Saturday, June 7, 2025, in the beautiful city of Charles City. This inspiring race is held in memory of Connor James Smith, who cherished the great outdoors and enjoyed being active with his mom. By participating, you'll not only honor Connor's spirit but also support the Connor James Smith Grant for SCN8A families, helping children with special needs gain access to essential equipment and therapies.

Whether you're a seasoned runner or just looking for a fun day outdoors, there’s a race distance for everyone! Choose from a Half-Marathon, Quarter-Marathon, or a 5K, with both in-person and virtual options available. The Half-Marathon features two scenic loops on the Capital Trail, while the Quarter-Marathon and 5K offer shorter, yet equally enjoyable, courses. All participants will receive an official race time, a finisher’s medal, and for those racing in person, a refreshing finish-line beerβ€”valid only on race day! Mark your calendars and get ready to make a difference while celebrating Connor’s legacy!
