New Year's Eve 5K, New Year's Day 5K, or Both?
Celebrate New Year's Eve and run into the new year with a 5K— or two! Rochester's Out With the Old and In With the New offers a 5K on December 31st and a 5K on January 1st. If you choose to cross both finish lines, your medals will connect. Walk or run this mostly flat 5K course with a mixture of rail trail and dirt trails through the back of Bloomer Park. Both days of this event will run along the same course but we will be switching directions to give it the feel of a totally different course, for those doubling up and crossing the finish line on New Year's Eve and New Year's Day. With a participant cap of 270 each day, we anticipate a sold out event.
Out With the Old (Dec 31st only)
In With the New (Jan 1st only)
Both Days OLD/NEW
