About the Tunnel to Towers 5K Run & Walk - Fort Worth, TX

The course runs through the Clearfork area of Fort Worth, starting near the green space where Marathon Ave meets Edwards Ranch Rd. The route honors Stephen Siller, a firefighter who ran toward the Twin Towers on the morning of the attacks, and each local edition dedicates the race to a first responder or military member from the area. The surface and surroundings are shopping-district streets.

Packet pickup is at a running store inside the Shops at Clearfork in the days before the race, with same-morning registration available until shortly before the start. Parking is in the Clearfork lots surrounding the start area. Water is available along the course and at the finish.

A field of 733 is big enough that you will have company at your pace without feeling lost in a crowd. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 5K, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Tunnel to Towers 5K Run & Walk - Fort Worth, TX?
