About this race
US Road Running Races
US Road Running races are built for runners and walkers who like friendly, low-pressure race days with just enough competition to keep things exciting. Our events are local, welcoming, and easy to jump into, whether you are chasing a PR, collecting another themed medal, working toward series points, or just getting outside with good people.
Race Experience
- Community Feel: Most races are small enough to feel personal but organized enough to feel official.
- Expectations: You can expect a clear course, helpful race staff, finisher medals, results, and a relaxed community feel.
- Bring: Bring your fast shoes, your steady walking pace, your favorite running buddy, or your best “I signed up for this on purpose” smile.
- Welcome: We will be glad to see you at the start line.
Race-Day Notes
- Staff: Because many US Road Running events are small local races, we normally have one or two staff members at each race.
- EMS: EMS is not stationed on site, and water stations are limited to the finish area at the end of each lap and at the race finish.
- Preparation: Please plan for the weather, bring anything you may want between laps, and check in with race staff if you need help.
- More Information: View Race Course, Results, and Race Information on the US Road Running race page.
