5K Course Information

The 5K check-in is at Tapawingo Park. Runners will check in, then get on a bus to be bussed to the start line. The last bus will leave Tapawingo Park promptly at 7:45am. The route begins on the Sagamore Trail near the intersection of Duncan Rd and Sagamore. Runners will run west on the Sagamore Trail, take the winding ramp down to the Heritage Trail at the Sagamore Bridge, and run south along the Wabash Heritage Trail. Runners will leave the trail just past the Harrison Bridge to run along Canal Street towards the substation. They’ll re-join the Heritage Trail just past the sub-station, and follow the Heritage Trail to the ramp at the Amtrak boarding dock. Runners will cross the pedestrian bridge towards West Lafayette, exit the bridge on the left/south side, and finish the race underneath the bridge.
