This race is in support of Light of Christ Academy, a Catholic school that is an apostolate of the St. Ann church community. The race will begin and end in the St. Ann's parking lot. The 5K course will go through the Sanctuary at St. Ann's across the street. The race will be mostly on trails of grass and dirt. The trails are moderately hilly in some areas. There will also be a half mile fun run for children 8 and under.

All proceeds from the Race will go to upgrading two drinking fountains at the school to include water bottle filling stations and an additional bathroom for the Montessori Classroom.

COURSE DESCRIPTION:

The course is an out and back with a half mile loop done three times. There are two road crossings, which will be staffed by volunteers, and a few turns to be aware of.
