Event Overview
The 5K for Kelsey is a community-focused fun run held in League City, Texas. The event serves as a memorial to raise awareness regarding the impacts of drinking and driving while generating funds for the Kelsey Nalepa Scholarship. This scholarship fund is managed by the LCGSA.
Race Details and Location
The event takes place at Hometown Heroes Park, located at 1001 E League City Pkwy. Participants can choose between two primary registration options:
- 5K - An individual age group run or walk open to all participants.
- Virtual 5K - A remote participation option specifically for those residing out of town.
The course utilizes a combination of concrete paths and decomposed granite surfaces. The event is designated as family and pet friendly, allowing for both strollers and dogs. Awards are presented to the first, second, and third-place finishers in three distinct age categories: Youth (12 and under), Teen (13-17), and Adult (18 and older).
Onsite Activities
Beyond the distance run, the event features several onsite activities. Food trucks are available to participants, with a portion of their sales donated to the scholarship fund. Attendees can also participate in a raffle basket drawing and an online silent auction. Onsite registration and race bag pickup, which includes a t-shirt, are available on the day of the event, though shirts are not guaranteed for late registrants.
