Sponsors

The 5K Course will be an out and back run starting on Harmony Street outside of the St Peter’s School entrance. The course will follow Harmony Street and then make a right on the Strand. At the end of the Strand, runners will make a Left and then a quick Right into Battery Park. The course will take the runners along the park trail and then turn around and come back to St Peter’s along the same route. The finish will take the runners into the school lane with completion in front of the Pastoral Center. For point of reference, mile 2 is very close to mile 1 on the return route and mile 3 is very close to 5th and Harmony. The last 117 meters is within the school property.
