The 5K Awesome Twosome and Try 3.3K start and finish at the same location in the parking lot of CMU's north campus at 500 Shaftesbury Blvd.
View the full route here, or view an image of the routes below.
5K route description:
Begin in the parking lot of CMU and turn right onto the asphalt Active Transport (AT) path at the end of the driveway that parallels Shaftesbury Blvd. Turn right at the corner of Shaftesbury and Grant Ave, continuing on the asphalt AT path heading west along Grant. At approximately the 1K mark the AT path curves right -- 5K participants should continue straight on the sidewalk (marshals will be in place to guide you). Turn right onto Chalfont Rd, where the route is on the side of the not-busy street (note: streets are not closed but course marshals will be in place to direct you). At the end of Chalfont turn right onto the AT path along Robin Blvd, and right again at the corner of Roblin and Shaftesbury. Turn into the CMU driveway and finish in the same place you started. Your partner will run the same route, but in the opposite direction.
