About the Clovis New Year's Day 5K
The volunteer positions are marked at specific spots around the course, which suggests a point-to-point or looping route through the streets of Clovis rather than a trail. The race draws both competitive runners and those out for a casual start to the new year, with separate waves keeping the two groups from merging into one crowd.
Packet pickup runs race morning before the start, so there is no separate trip the day before. Awards open shortly after the first finishers come in, which keeps the post-race hang short and easy.
