Both the 5k and 10k routes will be along the beautiful Gainesville-Hawthorne Trail and will be along the same route as Tom Walker Half Marathon and 5k the following month. 8:00 AM start for both events.

Because this race will be professionally timed, we want to make sure they're aren't any mixups on race morning.
