Description

I am exited to announce that the nationally known MK5K benefiting The Mary Kay Foundation is coming to Wake Forest! On Sunday, May 14 - Mother's Day - we will have the 1st running of the MK5K based out of the Renaissance Center through downtown Wake Forest.

Course

There will be 2 opportunities for water on the race course. With a nice mix of flat stretches and a just a few very small hills this run provides something for everyone.

Training for a 5K

Looking for a good training plan? Just google "5K training plan" and wow... here's one that I liked as it has 3 options for a first 5K, best 5K, or fast 5K! View the plan!

The minimum pace requirement for the 5K is 20-minutes per mile. Awards will be announced at 9:30am, and volunteers will be released after the last "official" runner. HOWEVER, you will still get a medal and our finish line will be open until 10am!

Race Day Schedule

8:00am: 1-mile run/walk
8:30am: 5K (3.1mile) chip-timed run/walk
FREE High Heel Hustle (must be 18+) 
Donation or Shirt Only: no racing, just the goodies! Come to packet pickup on Saturday to pick your swag.
