LCRC Youth - Sagecrest 2026

LCRC Youth - Sagecrest is a free one-mile fun run in Las Cruces, New Mexico, for children ages 1 to 14. It is part of the Las Cruces Running Club Summer Youth Program, with the Sagecrest event designated as the fourth race in the summer series. The run begins in the morning at 601 N Roadrunner Pkwy and is planned as a short, low-pressure event rather than a long competitive race. The series focuses on encouraging children to be active outdoors and interact with peers during the summer. Throughout the program, Las Cruces Running Club organizes three free one-mile fun runs, with prizes such as t-shirts, sunglasses, and watches. The primary appeal is straightforward: no entry fee, a distance manageable for most children, and an event format designed for young runners, not adults focused on speed.
