About the UMS Music Fun Run
The UMS Music Fun Run is a school music program fundraiser, which gives the morning a neighborhood-meet-up feeling rather than a competitive race atmosphere. The course goes up to a turnaround point at the top, so there is a real climb involved before you come back down.
Parking at Balzer Field off Miles Ave and University is limited, so carpooling is encouraged. Street parking nearby includes residential permit-only zones, so read the signs before you leave your car. The start area is at the field itself.
