About the Marathon Fun Days 5k Fun Run/Walk 2026
The course mixes a short stretch of road with trail running through the woods, then finishes through a sports complex. It is not chip timed, so the atmosphere leans toward participation over racing. The woods section gives it a quieter, more sheltered feel than a road race, and the finish area is open and easy to navigate.
There is a concession stand run by the American Legion Auxiliary at the finish, and registrants get a food and drink voucher to use there. It is a good place to hang around after you finish.
