1 Miles 3.1 Miles 5k Run Walk

Run or walk your way into a fabulous 4th of July week by registering for Run, Walk, Boom!

RWB is a family friendly road race for all ages through the City starting and ending at the Huntington Woods Recreation Center

If you don’t want to run or walk but would still like to be a part of this event – volunteers are needed! Contact [email protected] for volunteer information!

T-shirt included if you register by June 9th. Pick up shirt at the race starting point.

Runners will only receive an official time for the race for which they registered! If you intend to run in both races, you must register separately for both races and then wear the correct bib in the appropriate race!

5k runners running in the Mile and vise-versa only complicated both the backup and results confirmation process. Please do not run in both races unless you properly registered for each race separately AND have a different bib for each event.

*Day of/walk up registrations will be accepted, please arrive with enough time to go through registration, and pick up your bib before the race begins. Pickup and Race Day Registration opens at 7:00am, parking is in front of the recreation center!
