About the Winter Chiller 5K
The Winter Chiller 5K starts and finishes at St. Matthews Baptist Church, putting you right in the heart of the St. Matthews neighborhood. It is a winter morning race, so expect cold air and whatever the season brings. The route is a straightforward out-and-back or loop from the church grounds, with no particular terrain drama to prepare for.
The church serves as both the start area and the finish, so everything is in one place. Post-race, the gathering tends to stay close to the building, which helps when it is cold outside.
