About the event
Batavia United Way is pleased to announce the 11th annual Bat Race 5K/10K on October 26, 2024, beginning at River and State Street in downtown Batavia at 8:15 a.m. This chip-timed event along the beautiful Fox River Bike Path has drawn runners and walkers to our lovely town from 30 surrounding zip codes for 10 years. This event has something for all ability levels, whether you are a walker or a runner: 5K, 10K, and Kids Fun Run. Race awards will be given for the top three finishers male and female for 5K and 10K. All participants will receive a finishing medal.
Packet pick-up information will be available in September.
Race day brings all sorts of fun! The following will be available for purchase: The fabulous Bloody Mary bar at Pal Joey's, cider donuts, breakfast burritos, and more! What's a Halloween-themed race without costumes?! We encourage (but not require) you to wear costumes. We will be awarding prizes in various categories (e.g., Best Group Costume, Best Duo Costume, Best Adult Male Costume, Best Adult Female Costume, Best Child Costume) for those who want to participate in the costume contest. You can register at the information booth the morning of the race to be eligible for prizes.
Without supporters like you, we would not be able to provide assistance to over 19 local agencies or run the in-house programs such as our Success-by-6 preschool scholarships, Dolly Parton Imagination Library, Adopt-A-Family holiday program and more. Thank you and enjoy the festivities!
With gratitude,
The Batavia United Way Race Committee
