About this race
Summer Send-Off 8K
Close out summer with one last great race before the fall racing season begins! The Summer Send-Off 8K is the perfect opportunity to challenge yourself, set a late-summer PR, or simply enjoy an evening run with friends before shifting gears into autumn training.
Join us on Thursday, August 20th at 6:00 P.M. as we start and finish at the Wings Meeting Place. Whether you're a seasoned runner, a casual jogger, or a first-time 8K participant, you'll enjoy a fun, welcoming atmosphere and a beautiful summer evening on the course.
Best of all, your participation helps make a difference. A portion of the race proceeds will benefit Wings Flight of Hope, supporting its mission and the important work it does in our community.
Don't miss your chance to celebrate the end of summer, support a great cause, and kick off the next racing season in style. We look forward to seeing you at the starting line!
