(3) The 5K Course is entirely within Corteva Wetlands Preserve and the surface is mostly gravel and grass paths. Because of this we do not recommend bringing strollers or wagons unless you are prepared to carry these over some barriers and over the uneven terrain.

(4) We love our furry friends too, but we do not advise that you bring dogs to this fun run for safety reasons.
