5k | Food | FUN! Join us for a local summer tradition … over 20 years running! This USATF-certified course route was redesigned and repaved in 2017 and features a scenic wooded route through historic Pilcher Park.
Of course, the Sundowner wouldn’t be complete without the kids races – a 1 mile Junior Jog for kids ages 6-12 and a 50 yard Tot Trot for kids 6 and under. All youth participants will receive a custom t-shirt and medal.
Pre-registered runners will have their choice of unisex short-sleeve performance t-shirt or women's racerback tank top, and all runners will receive a finisher's medal. All runners will be treated to a post-race cookout in the pavilion.
The Sundowner 5k is a chip timed race. The overall male / female and masters (age 50+) male / female winners will be awarded prizes. In addition, age group awards will be given to the top 3 male/female finishers in each age bracket. Please see the FAQs for age group brackets.
$40 thru June 30 | $45 July 1-16 | $50 race day
