.5K. almost 1/3 mile. 1,640 feet. It's a race for everyone, with a fun foam finish!
You'll run, walk, skip, cartwheel, hop, etc just one-half of a kilometer, knowing that 100% of your entry fee will be used to build beds for children in our community with Sleep in Heavenly Peace. Stick around after the race to get a banana and a medal, and to play in the foam!
