About the Valentine 5K by Blue Cheetah Sports Timing
The course runs through Perryville Community Park and is certified by USATF. It is flat and quick, the kind of terrain where you can chase a time without worrying about what is underfoot. The race benefits the National PTSD Foundation, so there is a purpose behind the morning beyond the run itself.
Packet pickup happens the evening before at a running store in Bel Air, with race-morning pickup available under a pavilion inside the park. Parking is in the park as well, with a map provided to help you find the right lot.
