About this race
Kickoff the race season with the Grace Race with a 10k, 5k and 1 mile fun run. The proceeds from this school and community event will go to Grace Christian School. The race will be a fun, family event, but with Grace's cross country and track and field winning history, there will be some great competition as well. Feel free to run, walk, or meander. Bring the kids, babies and strollers and enjoy the morning while getting healthy at the same time. The Grace Race, a flat course running through Charles Park and along Versailles is a great route. (GCS reserves the right to make changes to the route). The one mile race will be a shorter portion of this route. T-SHIRTS are guaranteed up to the deadline registration. Packet pick-up will be from 3-5:30 p.m. the day before the race in the school gym. This will also be the staging area for the race. The gym area is off of Calais Circle/Versailles Blvd., one block past the school and to the right. Registration on race day will start at 6:30 and stop at 7:30. The 10k and 5k will begin promptly at 8 a.m. and the 1 mile shortly after. Awards will be given to the top 3 finishers in each age group, male and female. Official race timing with a chip system will be provided by Greg Daniels. Results will be posted on race day immediately following the race. We thank you for your support, and we look forward to seeing you as you cross the finish line!
