About the Sweet Owen Day 5K Fun Run/Walk
The race kicks off the Sweet Owen Day Festival, so the finish area feeds directly into a full day of local activity. The course runs on closed paved roads through the center of town, which keeps traffic out and makes the route straightforward. A short kids' dash follows after the main race wraps up.
Packet pickup happens race morning at the back of the courthouse, which puts you close to the start and keeps the morning simple. The festival grounds are right there when you finish.
