December Dash 5.5 Miler and .55 mile Kids' Dash

Wednesday, December 29, 2021 is somebody's something-something birthday! (If you haven't figured it out yet, where have you been??) Let's celebrate with a 5.5 Mile Run/Walk and/or a .55 Mile Kids' Dash! (All are welcome to participate in the .55 mile dash.)

COURSES:

• 0.55 Mile Course: Point to point course starting on the east drive and ending at the leaf arch. Kids AND kids-at-heart are welcome to participate. (Grownups: We will not be held responsible for pulled hammies or bruised egos!)
• 5.5 Mile Course: Start on the east drive, run 6 full laps of the not-a-full-mile-no-matter-what-they-say-it’s-more-a-like-.83-mile loop and finish at the leaf arch. I hope y’all can run or walk and count at the same time!
