Roll Like a Kid

 

🚴‍♂️ Roll Like a Kid

Part of the Run Like a Kid Race at Bell Tower Shops

Get ready for the ultimate throwback fun! Apex Promoz invites young racers ages 2 to 16 to join Roll Like a Kid — a fast, fun, and family-friendly race featuring tradition stock Big Wheels! It’s the perfect way to keep the energy rolling after the Run Like a Kid 5K and give our youngest participants a moment in the spotlight.

 

 

🎉 What Is Roll Like a Kid?

Roll Like a Kid is a short-distance, timed fun race for kids who want to show off their speed and wheels — Big Wheel style! Whether pedaling or pushing with their feet, kids will race while staying seated on their ride the entire time.

Depending on turnout, the race may be divided into waves or corrals. All results will be based on chip timing. It’s a race, and we want you to compete — but it’s all about fun!
