We're excited to host our 19th annual Twilight Run. This is a fun Wednesday evening race in downtown Lansing. The 5k course is accurate and scenic. We've put full procedures in place to ensure this is a SAFE event for you the participant, and all of our volunteers. The biggest change this year is our flexible start time from 6:30 to 7:00 pm. This will allow ample social distancing at the start of the race, along the course, and at the finish line. The race is chipped timed with results and awards.
We have a FULL stay safe race plan in place, see below for all the details.
Cost is only $15 until 6/11, then $20. Shirts are available for an additional $5.
As in years past, proceeds from the race go to support High School and Middle School Cross Country and Track programs, and Youth Running Clubs thru the Michigan Running Foundation grant program. If you would like to support our cause and get a free entry to the race see RUN FOR FREE! above for full details. Thank you for your support!
