THE COURSE: » The Spotswood 5K Race course will take you through the streets of Spotswood. There are volunteers throughout the course and white arrows painted on the street to guide you through the race. There will be two water stations set up on the course. The first station is at the one mile mark, and the second at the two mile mark. Please note that a 15 minute mile pace or faster is required for the 5k. A 15 min. mile pace is roughly four miles per hour, equivalent to a very brisk walk. If you fall below this pace, the race organizers can no longer guarantee course support. Water Stations, medical support, Bathrooms, and road closures will begin to become unavailable to participants. The local police and race organizers will ask you to either move up onto the sidewalk or require you to be transported further up on course to catch up to the 15 min. per mile group.
