This event is a collaboration between multiple organizations, and we are proud to offer a variety of races including a 1-mile fun run, a 5k, as well as a scenic 10-k.

🚶‍♀️ Participation Details

• Runners and walkers: welcome!

🌳 Course Information

These challenging courses are very unique: maps are soon to come! The 10K and 5k go down a taxiway around hangars back onto a taxiway, then out onto a mix of trails, dirt and paved roads. You may see wildlife as you go around several ponds.
