Post-Race Festivities
It’s a summer tradition. Runners and race walkers from all over the Metroplex gather Thursday evenings Downtown Fort Worth to run and walk 5000 meters (5K or 3.1 miles). Whether you are a competitive runner, mid-pack runner, jogger, or walker everyone has a good time.
See some old friends and make new ones. It’s the summer place for active people and way cooler than television reruns. It’s also a family event with a free 1K Kids Fun Run.
After the race, adults can meet informally under the trees for the infamous Arbor Society (formerly the Bridge Club). We don’t plant trees or collect leaves but socialize and exaggerate our running abilities. Bring your lawn chair and cooler.
