About the ClayCo 'Til I Die 5K Walk/Run
The course starts outside Tara Stadium, heads down Jester's Creek Trail, and comes back to finish at the stadium. It is an out-and-back on a trail, so you retrace your steps and finish where the crowd is waiting, with music playing and vendors set up around the finish area.
Packet pickup happens early in race week at Lightweight Fitness gym on Tara Boulevard, with exact timing sent by email beforehand. Parking opens at the stadium well before the start, and the organizers suggest rideshare or carpooling. A group warm-up runs on the field before the gun goes off.
