Chip-timed community 5K with medals, shirts, and age group awards.

Join us on Saturday, July 11th, for a great 5k and Kids 1/2 Mile Fun Run.

Race, run or walk on a flat course on what is normally a warm July morning.

The Andover City Staff and Anoka County Sheriff Department, along with our fantastic Volunteers, make sure the course is well marked, safe and you enjoy an amazing experience.

Finisher Medals for all the cross the finish line!
