About the Event
The Nutty Cutters 5k is a running event taking place on Saturday, March 7, 2026, in Palmdale, California. It is described as the second annual edition of the race.
Event Format and Course
The race features a unique course setup at Marie Kerr Park. The standard route consists of two laps around the park. However, on each lap, there are two points where runners may be randomly sent on a shortcut and two points where they may be randomly sent on a "long cut," adding an element of chance similar to the game "Chutes and Ladders." Participants are advised to be prepared for the possibility of running extra distance.
Runners have the option to select a "NO CUTTING" choice, which guarantees they run the exact 5k distance without any random shortcuts or long cuts.
Prizes and Perks
All prizes for the event are awarded randomly, not based on finishing order. This includes a $100 grand prize given to a randomly selected race finisher. Other prizes are also available. All participants receive a free shirt, with sizes selected during registration, until supplies last.
