What better way to start off the New Year than with a 5K?
• A 5K where no one actually counts your laps.
• A 5K run completely around the Squirkle/Zoldos Square.
• A 5K where costumes are not only requested, they’re encouraged.
• A 5K where you can win other people’s regifted Christmas gifts!
• A 5K where you can run, skip, hop, crawl, or stop… at any point in the race.
• A 5K where you can win by being the fastest, or you can win when your number is called at random.
• A 5K where we can all say without reservation that we started off the New Year by “running a 5K.” On January 2nd, you’ll know you’ve already nailed 2024.
