About this race
Did we say 10K? Yes we did! For 2027 we are adding a 10K run for everyone!
The 10K is open for everyone. The route will be the start of the 5K, but will divert to the East within the golf course. It follows a newly built path that goes under I-135 interstate to Hoover Road. From Hoover Road, the route will go East down a scenic winding road that goes by Crosswinds Convention Center and Camp David International. Finally following the route back to the golf course and ending at the Hobbs Stadium track.
Traditions stay for the one mile and 5K. No need to mess with something that works!
The one mile and 5K will stay as the traditional Womens/Girls only races.
Awards will be given to the Top 10 overall and top 3 per age group. Age groups are 8 & younger; 9-11; 12-17; 18-24; 25-29; 30-34; 35-39; 40-44; 45-49; 50-54; 55-59; 60-64; 65-69; 70-74; 75-79; 80-84; and 85 and older. The awards ceremony will not be more than 30 minutes.
