The SpectRUN is an Autism Sensory Friendly Event, which means the event is designed to be less sensory stimulating and overwhelming. To make it easier for individuals who have sensory sensitivities, such as those with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), we will modify loud sounds and will have a designated "quiet room" onsite.
See What to Expect by browsing through our SpectRUN Social Story.
There will be lots of things for the kids to enjoy, including Casey Carl's Bubblemania, Bounce House, Face painting, Sensory Tent, Games, Entertainment and Much More. There will also be Food Trucks, so don't forget to have a little cash on hand.
And what's a RACE without an ending CELEBRATION? For registered participants, snacks will be offered at the VIP tent after the race.
