About the Course
The course is a 5k loop that we use for all race distances. The 5k is one lap, 10k is two laps, and the 15k is three laps. We ask that runners and walkers leave a passing lane, when possible, on their left. The course is open to the public so please be courteous of other trail users.
Help the Community
Bring any food items you would like to donate to the registration shelter. We will have a collection area and after the event drop all the food donation off at the University Food Bank. Our featured charity for this event is FareStart. FareStart transforms lives, disrupts poverty and nourishes communities through food, life skills and job training and we will be making a donation to them.
