About the Frostbite 5-Mile Run & Penguin 5K Walk
The course starts flat, works through some gradual climbing in the first half, then flattens out and drops back down to the finish. It is a manageable profile, nothing steep or sudden. The whole thing benefits Special Olympics, with the stated aim of raising awareness and bringing in new volunteers, so the atmosphere around the race reflects that purpose.
Parking is available at a nearby fire hall and bank lots, which keeps things straightforward. There is food and refreshments after, along with door prizes. Awards go several age groups deep for both runners and walkers, and timing is handled by a dedicated race timing company.
