5K RUN/WALK

Runners make a U-turn at the intersection of Rainbow Rd and High St and continue back on Rainbow Rd to Poquonock and finishing their last stretch down Commons Crossing at the Villages. No dogs are allowed on the course, and strollers must start in the last wave, regardless of pace time.
