About the Race to End Alz 5K
The course runs a single loop through Rotary Park, starting and finishing at Common Grounds. The park setting keeps things shaded and manageable, and official chip timing is on the course. All entry fees go directly to Alzheimer's charities through a local nonprofit, so the race has a clear purpose behind it beyond the run itself.
Bib pickup is available the evening before at a local running store, with morning-of pickup at the park as a backup. After the race, there are raffle baskets and a grand prize drawing on site, with extra tickets available to buy if you want more chances.

The Race to End Alz 5K has been held every year since at least 2024. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Jul 27, 2026.
