This will be the 33rd season for the series, which attracts hundreds of runners and walkers of all abilities from northern New York and Canada to compete on the fast, flat 3.1 mile loop course at SLU. Participants will be competing to earn a Summer Sunset T-shirt, which will be awarded to those completing all three events.

In addition to the 5K race, a one-mile fun run will be held. Designed for young runners, walkers, and beginning runners, the one-mile event will begin at 7:15 p.m., prior to the 5K start. Competitors in all three one-mile runs will also receive T-shirts.

Registration for the June 12 race will begin at 6:30 p.m. across Park Street from the Augsbury Physical Education Center at SLU. Series fee is $5 or $2 per race (US & Canadian).
