Organiser's Description
Always inexpensive, the Dogwood Run 5K has been held annually in Neosho, Missouri since Eldon Morgan first hosted it in 1983.
This race's only intention is to see you and your family run and enjoy the blooming Dogwoods on your way!
Awards for age groups from 'under 10' to 'over 70' and the Delynn Kuhn Lifetime Achievement Award for the fastest older runner. The first 100 entrants get a dogwood sapling. Top male and female receive a large dogwood sapling.
Course outline:
Clockwise loop with start and finish at Big Spring Park in Neosho, MO. The course is challenging and beautiful with the dogwoods and redbuds in bloom.
All proceeds from the event go to a local infrastructure project to support active lifestyles in Neosho, MO. Some of our local contributions of the past include public tools for the Skate park (in Morse Park), doggie bag poles around the park, dozens of new dogwood trees plated around the park and helping the Joplin Road Runners buy a chip timing system which they use to organize local charity races!
This is an old school, no frills race: no finishers medals, no t-shirts. This keeps the cost low so you can bring the whole family without breaking the bank, or sign up a friend for their first 5K.
