About the Steps for STETSON 5K & 1 Mile Fun Run
This race starts and finishes at a church on a US highway in Thonotosassa, and the proceeds go toward short-term medical mission trips abroad. It is manually timed, with age group awards across the field. Both a 5K and a shorter fun run share the morning, so families tend to show up together.
Packet pickup opens at the church on race morning, and same-day registration is available at the same time. There is no separate pre-race pickup location to worry about.
