Bring your family and friends and join us for a beautiful day in a picturesque park! The flat and fast course provides an ample amount of shade, making it a great place to set PB's! 

 

What to Expect

  • Tons of food and a plentiful amount of water and other beverages;

  • Music playing all morning long to get you pumped up for the challenge;

  • Water stations along the course, where runners can recharge;

  • Duke Island Park is a great place to spend the day with the family. The Dash begins near the brand-new playground and is sure to please kids young and old;

  • 10k or 5k USATF sanctioned and timed races;

  • 1 Mile Walk;

  • Kids Fun Run;

  • Raise $100 for FREE Registration;

  • T-Shirts for all participants;

  • Medals for all runners

 

Prior to the races, cheer on the little ones at the Kids Fun Run - then set an example with your own PB. After your race, visit with our sponsors and thank them for all the great stuff you'll collect.

 

The medal ceremony will take place as soon as results are tabulated.
