The Pleasanton Partnerships in Education Foundation (PPIE) invites you to join them for the 2023 Pleasanton Run for Education. This signature community event is a great way to join with 3,000 fellow walkers and runners to raise funds that help support Pleasanton schools! For over 25 years, PPIE has worked to enhance education throughout the Pleasanton Unified School District through a partnership of business, education and community. PPIE raises funds to support critical programs and to fund projects enhancing educational excellence for all students.
This year's 11th annual Run for Education race is being held on Sunday, April 30, 2023, and both starts and finishes at the Alameda County Fairgrounds. A number of race options are available with a route for everyone! Races include a 5K course (3.1 miles), 10K course (6.2 miles), and Kids Challenge. The 10K event starts at 7:50 am and consists of a fast and flat course on the Marilyn Kane Trail as well as streets and trails in Pleasanton. The 2 Mile and 5K events start at 8:00 am and offers a family-friendly race from the Alameda County Fairgrounds through downtown Pleasanton.
