From the Organizer
We raise money from our Race to fund charitable efforts right here in our area, so this really is a neighborhood event. You run, have fun and help make your community a better place!
For the 10K: It is certified, for the serious runners. We plan to have course monitors to direct you to the turns from the Parkway. If you’re not familiar with the route, it is on our website.
For the 5K: The race start will begin immediately after the 10K begins. As before, the race route is only on the Parkway, measuring about 3.3 miles.
Race shirts are limited to the first 250 participants - WE HAVE REACHED THAT LIMIT.

From Endurance Grid
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.
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.
