Joltin' Joe 5K

The ADULT 5K RUN is a timed event on a USATF certified course consisting of a simple out and back route. The route is flat, fast, and suitable for runners and walkers of all abilities. Runners start and finish near the Wheeler Ferris Wheel. They go out 1.55 miles, turn around, and come back to the start/finish line. This is ideal for students age 5-17. With lower pricing this year, we hope to draw in more young people, so they can become advocates for safe driving as they begin their driving journey. All runners/walkers receive a race bib, custom finisher medal with a spinning Ferris wheel, and a ticket to ride the Ferris Wheel. You can add a long sleeve tech shirt for an additional $10.
