About the Event

The weather was perfect for the 2026 HC5K! Clear, crisp with little to no wind. The 2027 5K will be run on Sunday, March 7th, with the hopes the weather will be chilly and clear. The rain/snow date is Sunday, March 14th just in case Mother Nature does not cooperate this year.

Our event is a family-friendly/dog-friendly race run during the doldrums of winter. We get you off the couch and out of the house for this fun run. Start and finish at the Kent Island Elementary School and the course takes you along the scenic Cross Island Trail.

So get out your running shoes and sweats and train for this fun 5K. And remember, there is Hot Chocolate at the finish of the run!

Packet Pickup will be Sunday morning, race day, opening at 7:30, in the cafeteria of the school! (Yes, we are back inside). There will be race day registration with no guarantee of receiving a premium. Awards ceremony will begin at 10:00 after the run. Awards for 1st place male, 1st place female, as well as age group awards. Dog treats for all dogs at the end. Age group winners must be present to receive their award.

We have added 5K walking only division this year - Top 3 male and female win awards
