Funds are being collected for the Joining Hands Pediatric Rheumatology Support Group to help raise awareness and build a community for kids battling rheumatic disease.

Join us for the 1st annual Bone Dash 5K and Monster Mile event to help raise awareness and support for pediatric patients battling rheumatic diseases. All proceeds go directly to the Joining Hands Pediatric Rheumatology Support Group at the University of Iowa Stead Family Children’s Hospital. The event will take place at the Lake McBride Timber Dome Lodge in Solon, Iowa on October 8th, 2022.

8:45—9:45 AM Race day registration & Packet Pick Up
If you are registering the day of the event, please bring cash or a check.

10 AM—both 1 mile and 5K run

After the race, stick around for snacks, prizes, photobooth, meet & greet with superheroes and princesses, and costume judging!

The Bone Dash 5K and Monster Mile both start near the Timber Dome Lodge. The one-mile racers will have a nice easy loop around the Solon Nature and Recreation Area. The 5K runners will split off near the 1-mile mark and run through the scenic Lake McBride Trail until turning around to the finish. The entire route will be on a paved path.

October 8th, 2022, 8:45—9:45 AM at the Timber Dome Lodge

This is a fun run event that will not have chip timing. In place of awards for top finishers, we will have raffle prizes to participants.

There is plenty of parking in front of the Timber Dome Lodge at the Solon Nature and Recreation Area
