The 26th Annual Run the Mounds 5 Mile race is being held on November 4th at 2pm.
This is a great race held each year by the Anderson Road Runners Club at Mounds State Park, just outside of Anderson. To top off a great race atmosphere and experience this year the ARRC and Race Director Greg Smith have decided to give a Brooks Podium Long Sleeve to all pre-registered runners.
99% Trails/Grass 1% Blacktop
Both the 5 Mile and 5K Walk courses start on grass near the Woodland Shelter (across from the pool), then utilize the park trail system. The trail has ruts, rocks, stumps, roots, leaves, and other naturally occurring debris on it.
Awards
Awards will be presented to the overall male and female runners and walkers, as well as overall Masters male and female runners. Awards will be presented 3 deep in each designated age group (approximately 5 year groups).
Note to Walkers – this is a judged event.
Fun Run – race starts at 1:30 meet at Pool House

So anybody who registers by the end of this week gets that Brooks Podium shirt? If I get my new shoes and my training goes well, I'd love to run a 5 mile race…
Mike – that is my understanding! Anyone pre-registered by Oct 20 gets the shirt. This is an excellent trail race to run. Hope to see you there.
