About the 21st Annual Richard's Run HHK 5K
The course winds through residential streets and finishes in the center of town, where a post-race party draws a crowd. The route is described as fast, which tracks with the neighborhood terrain: mostly flat streets through a small borough where the turns keep things interesting without adding much climbing.
The finish-area gathering is a known part of the day here. People stick around after they run, and the party in the town center is apparently the part people talk about most afterward.
