Run the Branch 5k

🏃‍♂️ Race Overview

Join us for our 3rd Annual Run the Branch 5k! Participants are welcome to walk, jog, or run! Due to the current closure of Legend Park and a portion of Sam’s Branch Greenway, we will be using an alternate route this year. Participants will still start and end at Municipal Park. A portion of the race will still take place on a greenway.

👶 Tot Trot

We will also be offering a Tot Trot for children ages 6 and under. Participants will participate in a short (0.1) untimed run across the event lawn and back. All participants will receive a ribbon. Tot trot will take place at 9:45.
