Special Thanks

To Gold’s Gym for again assisting in the sponsorship of the race. River’s Edge Trail for being available to run on any day we choose, the Foot and Ankle Clinic and Road ID for the generous gift certificates. Please watch your packet for additional sponsors!

10 K

The 10k will start at the entrance to the park on the trail and proceed west towards the Missouri River Diner. The turn will be approximately 50 yards prior to the first driveway to the diner where there will be an aid station. This will be a quick route with the wind at your back running towards the finish. The only hill in the course will be at the turn instead of at the end.

5K

The 5k will start at the same location, only it will head east. The turn will be on the big hill. There is a restroom on the course approximately a quarter mile into the course.

Timing

It is tradition that these events are not timed. The idea behind the race is a family gathering that burns calories and raises money for the River’s Edge Trail. We’re here for fun!!!

Our new routes will not require traffic crossings either!

(PLEASE NO DOGS, STROLLERS, ROLLERBLADES, OR SKATEBOARDS)
