Cedar Rapids, Iowa—Grab a spoon, pull out some sneakers, and get ready to celebrate Cedar Rapids’ favorite colorful cereal. Murals & More, a local nonprofit, invites you to join The Crunch Berry Run, sponsored by Cap’n Crunch®, a colorful run/walk happening Saturday, September 16, 2023, at NewBo City Market. All proceeds support Murals & More’s mission to create public art in Cedar Rapids.
Inspired by the colors of Cedar Rapids’ world-famous Cap’n Crunch Crunch Berries®, this is not your typical 5K. The event is family-friendly and noncompetitive, meaning there’s no race timer. As a welcoming event to all ages and abilities, the out-and-back route allows people to go the distance that is right for them. That could mean walking a mile, jogging the full 5K, or anything in-between. Crunch Berries® will be waiting at the finish line.
The Crunch Berry Run includes interactive art, music, a photo opportunity with Cap’n Crunch, and bold environmentally-friendly colors throughout the event. Party Cap’ns Clare Duffy and Eric Hanson of Z102.9’s The Morning Scramble will lead the party as emcees. The event features a main stage musical performance, plus a special Crunch Berry Day official proclamation from Cedar Rapids Mayor’s office.
