Course Notes
3K and 5K have the same start but 3K splits off and then joins back to 5K along the water at Fort Trumbull. All 3K participants need to stay on the sidewalks to ensure safety. Both courses are flat and scenic, and are accurately measured and well marked with mile splits. Police and volunteers will be on hand for safety.
