5k
The USATF certified 5K course runs through Calvin's scenic, relatively flat university campus. The 5k race will begin with the handcycle racers starting just before the runners, and walkers starting just behind the runners. Strollers are welcome but must stay at the back of the race. Bicycles, rollerblades, skateboards and animals are not allowed on the course. All participants must be registered and have a race number to participate. Note: If it's decided that an in-person race is not a possibility, we will transfer registrations to the virtual race option.
*Each participant receives a race shirt; shirts are youth and unisex sizes.
