GRC Summer 5k Series
About this race
The GRC Summer 5k Series is a 9-week series through June and July. Runners will meet at Back Forty Beer Company in Gadsden, AL on Thursdays at 6pm from June 5th - July 31st. Runners will enjoy a nice 5k route through downtown Gadsden and the historic district. The course will be marked with bright colored duct tape on the road. The course is NOT closed - please be aware of your surroundings. *There will be NO charge for the series!!* There is an option to purchase a series shirt or a ladies tank top, and they will both come in sweat-wicking material. The deadline to order a shirt is May 5th so we can have the shorts ready for you by the first night on June 5th. The series is open to all ages and paces - come join us for a run or a walk! You don't need to be a GRC member to enjoy these runs. Please follow GRC on Facebook to stay updated on weekly information regarding the Summer Series.
