This lively 3.1-mile race offers a fun, flat, and fast course, guiding runners along the scenic Lansing River Trail before culminating in an exciting finish near Jackson Field, home of the Lansing Lugnuts Baseball Team. It's the perfect way to kick off the annual Beerfest at the Ballpark, with typical race day conditions seeing comfortable highs around 68F and lows around 46F, and only a 17% chance of precipitation, making for ideal running weather.

What truly sets this 5K apart is the celebratory atmosphere that awaits at the finish line. Every race registration includes a coveted finisher's medal, a commemorative t-shirt, and entry to the much-anticipated Beerfest at the Ballpark, ensuring a rewarding experience beyond the run itself. While drink tickets for the Beerfest are separate, participants (who must be 21+ with a valid ID) can easily upgrade their entry or purchase tickets on-site to enjoy a variety of brews and festivities. This event promises an unforgettable afternoon of physical accomplishment followed by spirited socializing in the heart of Lansing.
