5K through downtown Fairmount to benefit United Way. Nice scenic race that ended in a light shower. Local shops and entertainment are setup around the town square for the post race. 4th place this time

Pretty fun and flat course. End of the last mile on homepage instead the minor league baseball stadium. It was overcast and pretty humid for a morning face.

2015 was the first time for this race to be held. The volunteers were all very friendly and each knew a lot about the course. Great mostly flat course that starts at the school and goes past both the park and the River Walk trail.
The post race events included free back massage, chick fil a refreshments, and games presented by Target. The medals were also very nice. I hope they will have a 2nd annual race this year.

Run through downtown Rome and finish in a stadium. Nice course similar course to a Jingle Bell run in Rome in December, but I prefer this course.

This is the first 5K I do every year at the St. James Episcopal Church. The course consists of rolling hills through the surrounding neighborhood and ends with a gradual downhill road back into the church's parking lot. Fun race to do, medal are flower pots designed by the students. I'll be back next year to do this one again
