Pediatric Cancer Foundation of Lehigh Valley will be holding its Ready, Set, GOLD Run/Walk which features an 8k run, a 5k walk, and a kids’ fun run/obstacle course April 18 at the Ironton Rail Trail in Coplay.

The Coplay Pavilion (at Front and Keefer Streets) will be the hub of all the activity and is the site of registration and check-in.

This fun event also features raffles, music, food and special guests.

Registration opens at 7 a.m., with the opening ceremony beginning at 8 a.m.

The 8k Run begins promptly at 8:30 a.m., followed by the 5k walk at 9 a.m.

The kids’ fun run/obstacle course begins at 10:30 a.m.

Strollers are permitted in the run, but those participants need to start in the back.

Walkers can take their time strolling along the scenic 5k route.

There will be various awards/prizes for the runners.

All money raised stays here in the Lehigh Valley to help local pediatric cancer kids and their families.
