- ½ Marathon: Run as an individual, or as part of a two person or three-person relay team.
- 5k: The 5k run takes place on a completely closed course, and is incredibly flat and fast.
- 1k kids run: For kids 4 to 13!
AWARDS
Awards will be given to the top three in each division/age group in the ½ marathon and 5k. Overall winners are not eligible for age group awards. The 1k kid’s run is untimed, and therefore, awards will not be given out in this distance.
