The run isn't competitive, with participants invited to go at their own pace and stop to snap photos with any of the murals along the way.

The route will begin and end at the intersection of 25th and Spruce streets. In total, runners will complete 5 miles during the fun run.

The Mural Miles event will kick off at 5:30 p.m. and a post-workout party is planned at Parks on Tap. The beer garden is set up at two locations this summer. One is located on the corner of 27th and South streets.
