About the Copper Wire Run 5k
The course starts in the village park and heads out through Camden's streets before dropping into Forest Park, where the route runs alongside streams and under tall pines. It returns to the park to finish, so the post-race area is right where you left your bag. Volunteers are posted at the water stations and the mid-course split point.
Packet pickup happens at the race tent in the village park the evening before, with a second window on race morning. After finishing, there are snacks, water, and juice in the finish area. Age group and overall awards are presented after the race wraps up, so it is worth staying around.
