About the Plano Pacers Fresh Start 5K/10K and Free Kids 1K
The race runs out of Windhaven Meadows Park in Plano, with several distance options including a free kids' run after the main event wraps up. The park setting keeps things open and easy to navigate, and the kids' course requires no advance sign-up, so families can decide the morning of.
Club members with timing chips can skip registration and just show up to run. Guests who pre-registered can grab their bibs at the registration area on race morning, though arriving before the start gives you the most breathing room for chip or bib pickup.
