Frosty Five Run (5K or 5M)

Frosty Five Run (5K or 5M)

Join us for the 15th Annual Frosty Five Run. Enjoy the scenic course that starts at Studebaker Park Pavilion and follows the River Greenway Trail along the Elkhart River. The 5K and 5M courses will now all be almost entirely on paved trails. The City of Elkhart has paved the path for multi-use (bikes and running) and made some major improvements to the drainage so that flooding/freezing is unlikely to occur. February is the month when the winter blues might try to set in, so come out for some fun and camaraderie! You won't feel the cold with your running mates by your side! We'll have a fire going in the cabin to stay cozy before and after the race. There are large restrooms, so you can bring a dry top to change into there. Plenty of parking at the park- there are multiple lots and plenty of street parking.
