It's better than shopping and more fun than the over-crowded turkey trots. So lace up your running shoes and join us for a morning of fitness, friendship, and fun!

The Black Friday 5K is not your typical holiday event. Instead of getting caught up in the chaos of shopping and spending money, this community run encourages you to focus on what really matters - your health and happiness.
