Race Course
The Earth Day 5k & Kid’s Mile courses are flat and fast. The 5k starts and finishes with a loop of the Fairgrounds followed by an out and back loop along a beautiful paved bike/walk trail before completing another loop of the fairgrounds and crossing the finish line. The Kid’s Mile is simply one loop of the Fairgrounds which is super spectator-friendly.
