About the Pike Lake Fall Fun Run 5K
The race benefits the parent-teacher partnership group at a local elementary school, with profits going toward field trips, programming, and classroom supplies. The school's students are part of the morning themselves, running a pancake breakfast at the finish where proceeds go toward an environmental learning field trip for the oldest grade.
The start area is at the school, so parking and the post-race spread are in the same place. The breakfast is worth staying for, and the crowd that shows up is mostly families with a connection to the school.
