St. Jude Kids' Fun Run

2026 marks the 25th anniversary of St. Jude Memphis Marathon Weekend presented by Juice Plus+, and we can’t wait to celebrate this incredible milestone with you! The Kids’ Fun Run is proud to be part of this special moment and to encourage young St. Jude supporters to get involved.

This December, kids 12 and under will help celebrate 25 years of running, fundraising and community by showing up with energy, smiles and big hearts. Whether it’s your child’s very first race experience or another joyful lap around the course, this anniversary year is a chance to make memories while helping others.

The Kids’ Fun Run is designed to celebrate movement in its happiest form — kids running, walking, laughing and cheering one another on. Every step taken helps St. Jude continue leading the way the world understands, treats, and defeats childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases.

Because of supporters like you, Families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food — so they can focus on helping their child live.

We’re excited to celebrate this milestone together!

Here’s to 25 years of impact and to our biggest Kids’ Fun Run yet.
