Lace up for a crisp fall 5K that’s all about fun, fitness, and the best parts of October. The Neighborhood Block Party 5K is a timed run/walk along a scenic, paved loop through Farmstead and Clinton River Parks. Whether you’re chasing a PR, running in costume, or pushing a stroller, this race is built for all ages and all paces, with recovery snacks/breakfast, music, and prizes after the finish line!
You’ll run through Farmstead Park and down the Clinton River Main trail before looping around and returning back to Farmstead.
And if you're looking for more ways to participate, don't forget to bring a bag of candy to race check-in! All candy goes toward the annual Neighborhood Block Party on Halloween night, and the participant who donates the most by weight will be crowned this year’s Candy Crusader during the post-race awards ceremony. It’s a fun way to add a little extra competition, and a lot more candy for local kids.
