Race Information
The annual Twisted Cider 5K & 12k run and walk is coming to the City of University Place! How ‘bout them apples!
We hope you’ll join us for the Twisted Cider 5K event! Runners and walkers will start and finish from the Curran Apple Orchard Park, meandering around the quiet neighborhoods of University Place with glimpses of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge and the Puget Sound. With gentle rolling hills along with flat and fast sections, you’re going to enjoy these courses.
Bring the whole family! The Kids 1K is a fun way to get the kids (12 and under) to participate! Parents can run with their kids and do not have to register for this distance. The course will be an out-and-back along Sound View Drive.
After the race, enjoy some snacks and wander the beautiful grounds of the park. (But please do not pick the apples!)
