The race takes place at Tipton Park (2405 General Electric Road, Bloomington) and is an out and back on Constitution Trail.  The Kids One Mile Run starts at 5:30 pm and the 5K starts at 6:00 pm.

Bib Pickup
Bib pickup will be available at Fleet Fleet Bloomington during regular business hours from 10:00 am – 5:00 pm on Tuesday, June 4. You can also pick up your bib at Tipton Park before the race on Wednesday from 5:00 pm – 6:00 pm.

Swag
There are no age group awards but all participants will receive a finisher’s medal for each race. There is an option to purchase a cotton unisex race t-shirt for $15 when you register.  T-shirt deadline is May 22.

Help Us Give Back
Through our charitable arm, Do the Run Thing™, Fleet Feet has partnered with Girls on the Run so we can help more girls cross more finish lines. Why? Because everyone benefits when we support our kids.  You will have the opportunity to make an optional donation when you register.

Stay Inspired
Not sure where to start? Join our 5K Training Program and we will get you to the finish line. Or come see us at the store so we can outfit you in the best gear, talk about your goals and make sure you meet them.

Participant Limit
150 total participants in the 5K – this is a FIRM participant limit – we only order enough medals for these participants!
