About the FCA 5K & 1 Mile Fun Run/Walk
The course starts at a park near the Smolen Gulf Bridge and works through the surrounding area. The organizer describes it as a genuine challenge, so expect some terrain that asks something of you, not a flat loop through a parking lot. The bridge itself is a notable landmark in the area, and the route puts it right in your sightline early on.
