About the 17th Annual Parkland Pace or Race
The course is USATF certified and runs flat and fast through Parkland. It draws a wide spread of ages, from young kids to runners in their eighties and beyond, and the proceeds go directly toward shoes, uniforms, and college scholarships for local youth runners connected to a high school cross country program.
Registration and bib pickup happen the morning of the race, with a window that closes shortly before the start. An awards ceremony follows the finish, where gift cards are raffled out to the crowd.
