About the Race
Date and Time
The race will be held Sunday November 7, 2010 at the King Farm Village Center (King Farm Blvd. and Pleasant Dr.). You must arrive at the race site before 8:00 AM as the streets leading to the area are closed at that time to insure a prompt race start at 8:30 AM.
See Getting There for driving directions.
In order to provide accurate and timely results, we will have different starting times for the races. The 10K race will start at 8:30 AM. The 5K race will then begin approximately fifteen minutes later at 8:45 AM. Please position yourselves accordingly in the time leading up to the start of the race.
Runners MUST run the race that they register for (5K or 10K). You may not switch distances during the race as starting chip times for each distance will be captured separately and will need to match up with the race you have been entered into the database for.
Course
User-friendly and certified courses - good for running and good for watching! Multiple opportunities to see your competition and friends.
