Two Ways to Run It
You can run the 5K at any age, and you’ll take home a medal when you cross the finish line. If your kids are 12 or under, they’ve got their own option too, a shorter Fun Run.
Grab Your Packet Early
You can pick up your packet the two days before the race, Thursday, October 8 and Friday, October 9, both from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Springdale Recreation Center, 1906 Cambridge St. Swing by ahead of time so it’s one less thing to think about on race morning.
