#AddisRace #BBL5k #BigBeautifulLife

Together, we can do more to support children in chronic medical crisis! There’s something for everyone!

A Community Gathering: Join us for a fun & memorable community event celebrating a forever inspiration, Addi “15A1” Carroll. This is a great opportunity to come together, celebrate her life and support important causes. Whether you participate in the race, cheer others on or simply enjoy the festivities, it’s a chance to be part of something special.

Raise awareness and funds: Hosted as a fundraiser for Big Beautiful Life, a non-profit which brings comfort, joy, community & resources to children in chronic medical crisis. We will also feature other non-profit organizations which help families thrive, including our featured partner — Essex Fire Department.

Activities for Everyone:

Spectators (free admission): Honoring Addi, 15A1, Addi’s Engine will start the race! Explore the Emergency Services Touch-A-Truck to investigate emergency vehicles and meet the heroes who keep our community safe. Visit the Non-Profit and Sponsor Tents to learn about non-profit organizations and local businesses. Enjoy lighthearted entertainment for the whole family including Wild Bill of WOKO as master of ceremonies and a Mascot Dance Party.

Participate (in person or virtually) in a 1.2k or 5k fun run, walk or roll for a good cause: children in medical crisis. Our 5k Cross country style course is professionally chip-timed and pending USATF course certification. The 1.2k is a flat asphalt course for those on wheels or who have difficulty with distances or grade changes. We offer a special First Responder Division and an optional 6 week virtual “Couch To” Program.
