Join us for the inaugural SCHABC 5K Balloon Chase, a unique community fun run with a hot air balloon twist.
The race starts at 8:00 AM on May 3rd at Keiser Park in Windsor, California. This is more than a typical 5K. Several hot air balloons will inflate and remain on the ground, creating a spectacular backdrop for your run and for photos at the finish line.
All registered participants will receive a special hot air balloon shaped race bib and commemorative pin. 5K entrants will also receive an event hat.
The 5K course will start and finish in the park at the race arch. Special balloon runners will be on the course for you to chase, adding a fun and interactive element to the event. A 1K option will also be available for those looking for a shorter distance.
Food and merchandise booths will be on site for participants, friends, and family to enjoy throughout the morning.
