Join us for a powerful morning of remembrance, gratitude, and community at the Strides for Service: Veterans 5K — a race dedicated to honoring the brave men and women who have served our country. Set against the scenic backdrop of Saunders Springs Nature Preserve, this event offers participants a chance to run, walk, or jog in tribute to our veterans, with every step echoing appreciation and respect.
Whether you're racing for a loved one, supporting a cause, or simply showing up in solidarity, this 5K is more than a run — it's a movement. Expect patriotic vibes, local veteran tributes, and a finish line celebration that brings the heart of America together.
All ages and fitness levels are welcome. Strollers, service dogs, and flags encouraged. Proceeds benefit Saunders Spring Nature Preserve.
This course is on the trails. There maybe portions of the trail that have leaves and twigs.
Let’s lace up, show up, and run with purpose.

About This Sport
From Endurance Grid's Founder
Endurance Grid is here to help you understand the sport, decide if it's the right fit, and learn how to prepare. For course distances, logistics, and race-day specifics, always defer to the race organizer's event page.
The 10K is the distance where running stops feeling like a starting point and starts feeling like a sport. Long enough to require a real training block. Short enough that race day is fully manageable for a first-timer who's put in the work.
Race day energy at a 10K is community at its best — strangers cheering you by name, people moving toward the same goal, an atmosphere that solo training can't replicate. It's fast enough that you'll spend the whole race pushing rather than managing your effort.
This is also the distance that builds the base for everything else. Most athletes who go on to run half marathons, do triathlons, or compete in HYROX started here. What you need: running shoes fitted to your stride, a training plan, and the race on your calendar. The registration is what makes the deadline real.
How long to train: 4–8 weeks for most fitness levels.
Running
From 5K to marathon, running races are the most accessible entry point into endurance sport. There's a distance for every fitness level and a community at every start line.
