Ferris 50 Endurance Run's 1.5k Kids Race

Do you have a future ultra athlete in the making? Or a kiddo that wants to wear their medal to show and tell at school? Good news! A 1.5k Kids Race has been added to the line up for 2026, part of the second annual Ferris 50 Endurance Run.

Starting at 1:00pm, the course will begin on the Martin Slough Trail behind the Carson Valley Inn and cover 1.5k on an out-and-back route with the finish line inside TJ’s Corral with the other race distances. If you’d like to run with your little one, a single pacer will be allowed. Bring the rest of the family to cheer on their runner! Finishers will receive a Kids Race medal and Ferris 50 bib.

Minimum age for the Kids Race will be 5 years and multiple age division waves will be run if enough racers register. UltraSignUp recommends that you complete the registration as a Guest rather than under an existing profile. A parent/guardian will need to acknowledge the waiver.

Registered runners for the 50M, 50k, or 15k distances will receive a discount code for 25% off a kids race. Find out more on the race’s page at UltraSignUp.com or click here.
