🧪🦁🏃 RUN FOR SOMETHING BIGGER!

The 2026 Long Life Meal Prep Cannonball Running Festival is proud to partner with the Greensboro Science Center as a charitable partner! 💙

 

For more than 65 years, the Greensboro Science Center has been sparking curiosity and wonder in our community. What began in 1957 as the Greensboro Junior Museum has grown into one of North Carolina’s leading science destinations — bringing together science, animals, education, conservation and unforgettable experiences.

And we’re excited to give our Cannonball participants a chance to enjoy the Science Center AND help support its mission!

🎟️ CANNONBALL PARTICIPANT DISCOUNT

Race weekend is the perfect time to visit! Cannonball participants and their friends and family can receive discounted admission to the Greensboro Science Center from Friday, October 16 through Sunday, October 18.

Simply show your Cannonball race bib or registration confirmation at the ticket window at the Greensboro Science Center Entrance.

🎉 GIVE BACK + WIN AWESOME PRIZES!

We’re also excited to support the Science Center’s fundraising campaign!
