About the FireAnt 5K & Tour de FireAnt Bike Ride
The FireAnt 5K runs through Marshall with a single water station along the way. The route is part of a larger festival weekend, so there is activity around the course and a sense of occasion even if you are just there to run. Breakfast tacos are available before or after the race, which is a nice detail on a cool race morning.
Registration and day-of sign-up happen near the Courthouse, behind a local law firm. The start area pulls double duty since the bike ride launches from the same spot later that morning, so it stays busy well after runners finish.
