HAM & HAMSTRINGS

Date: Sunday, April 20, 2014
Time: 8:00 AM
Rain, shine, or snow, the race will go.
Location: 7718 E. Woodman Rd (7-Eleven East Woodmen), Colorado Springs CO

The Hams and Hamstrings 5K has a new course this year! The course starts at 7-Eleven just west of Woodmen and Marksheffel and heads south on the trail, turns around at the new fire station and returns to 7-Eleven (Oh, Thank Heaven for 7-Eleven!).

Walkers: Yes! Our belief is that a 5K is for runners and walkers both. All we will ask is that everyone seeds themselves in approximate order of speed and for start-of-race safety concerns – we will have walkers start in the second half of the pack instead of the first half of the pack. The race is chip timed, so no matter where you start, you’ll still get your accurate times.

Post Race FUN: Always fun and tasty…

Strollers: In addition to running, we support health, fitness, babies, fun, etc. We’d love to have you! All we will ask is that everyone seeds themselves in approximate order of speed and for start-of-race safety concerns – we will have strollers start in the second half of the pack instead of the first half of the pack. The race is chip timed, so everyone, including those with strollers will still get their accurate times. There is no charge for stroller babies (they’re not walking or running after all) and they will not get the shirt, goody bag, official times, etc.

Other Details: Registration fees are nonrefundable. No pets are allowed in the race.
