Course Description
The race will start at the parking lot of Gem Prep School.
This is a flat 5k out-and-back course on which runners and walkers will head out of the Gem Prep School parking lot, making a right onto Iowa Ave, and then turning right onto the greenbelt. Participants will follow the course markings on the greenbelt until they arrive at the aid station/turn-around located on the Wilson Pathway, just before the W Roosevelt Ave crossing. Runners and walkers will then follow course markings to return to Gem Prep School.
This race will be professionally timed.
Please, for your own safety and for the safety and consideration of others:
- No dogs allowed on the course.
- If you must bring a stroller, please stay to the right so other runners and walkers can pass safely
- We understand that sometimes the only way to run or walk is with music. Please keep one earbud out, and volume low enough so that you are able to easily hear what’s happening around you.
And Last, But Not Least, an ENORMOUS THANK YOU to our Runners and Walkers!!!
A Big Thank You to our sponsors
