Race Information
Come hang out just before dusk for the Summer Nights 5K and 1 Mile-ish! The setting sun paired with the shade of our trails will make for the “coolest” race you can do around here in mid-July!
Participants can enjoy one of the best pre-race settings around at a super secret location on the grounds. Hydrate and hang out as you prepare for a magical race during the golden hour in the Garden.
After the race is over, participants will have AFTER HOURS access to the Butterfly Bungalow, food trucks, beverages, live music and more.
Custom awards will be given to the top three overall male and female finishers and the top three male and female finishers 14 and under thru 65 and better in five year age increments.
Summer Nights 5K and 1 Miler is a mix of paved areas, brick pathways and trails.
