Description

The 2nd annual Fit Family 5K is for runners and walkers of all levels and ages. A one-mile fun run around Hanes Park is a flat course ideal for children of all ages and abilities. The 5K course begins near the William G. White Family YMCA on West End Boulevard and climbs through the West Highlands and into Buena Vista where it turns back at the halfway point for a downhill, fast finish at the YMCA on West End Blvd. Given that the course is USATF certified, final run times are eligible for state and national records. This family-friendly event includes a post-race party sponsored by Forsyth Medical Center.
