Join us for the Annual Hot to Trot 5k on Saturday, July 26, 2025. This race grows bigger each year, so don’t miss out on all the fun. It’s a mostly flat family-friendly course, a perfect route for seasoned runners looking to PR, for the casual runner that’s in no rush, and for the entire family to take a walk before the day gets too hot! Every registrant will receive a cool performance-wicking t-shirt, breakfast, and maybe even a medal? Awards are given out to top runners, but the biggest hit of the day is our awesome t-shirts! In order to be guaranteed a t-shirt register by Thursday, July 10th.

1st, 2nd, 3rd for Overall Male and Female
1st, 2nd, 3rd Place Winners for Male and Female Age Groups
