USATF Certified Course: 5K Map
You can run the KidsK with your child (no need to register for that as an adult), but we will ask adults to line up at the back with their child. We want those who are running independently to go out first, please. Only kids 12 and under will get a medal for this event. All registered participants in the 1 mile and 5K will get a medal! Anyone can sign up for either distance, but there are only age group awards for 14 and under for the mile distance. We have Overall/Masters and age group awards/medals for the 5K!
Families that participated in the fall run club series received a discount code for the Halloween Hustle. Check your email!
Doggies and Strollers welcome!
