From the Organizer
1-Mile fun run/walk in the town of Griswold on the Griswold High School Track!
This run will be hand timed. On a track so flat, fast and easy! Plenty of parking at the school. This is a basic no-frills run, and we will run rain or shine. No refunds. We do not know if there will be facilities on the property, so plan accordingly.
All proceeds from this race will go to charities. We thank you for your support and we look forward to seeing you.
