Logistics and race details
The Fun Run and the in-person 5K begin and end at the Maryville Greenbelt Amphitheater. Virtual participants may run or walk anywhere; virtual times must be submitted before 11:59pm on race day (April 25). A certified course map is available online. Because portions of the course are narrow, a staggered start will be used; runners will be scored by chip time. Results and age-group winners will be posted after the race.
Packet pick-up is scheduled for Friday, April 24 from 3:00-6:00pm at the Maryville Greenbelt Pavilion next to the Amphitheater. Race day check-in is available at the pavilion. Public parking locations include between Broadway and Church Street, across from Dandy Lions Gifts, and the parking garage between Harper and Broadway. All children must be accompanied by a legal guardian; pets must remain on a leash. The event is rain or shine and is nonrefundable. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
