  • Comments: A nice little neighborhood charity 5K. Family-friendly; dogs and strollers welcome, too. Had Luke's Locker as a sponser, so it may get bigger next year. (Was ~275 people total for both events.) Balloon animals and face painting for kids. Bagels, bananas, apples, and water.

  • Comments: I didn't know what to expect for a 'first annual' event, especially a church charity. However, I was very impressed. Lots of volunteers. *Every* intersection had someone there, plus plenty of signs and mile markers. Sound stage with an aerobics instructor getting people warmed up. Bagels, fruit, water, and donuts. Heck, even chilled dog treats for the canines. Main roads were barracaded, with a police lead and trail for the first/last runners, respectively. Water at 1/2 mile poitn and the mid-point. The only thing I could comment againts was that it was manually timed. But what do you expect at a small, local, first-year event? The turnout was less than I expected, but the quality of the event was top notch. I hope the event continues to grow over the years.
