Event Description
Don’t miss the FIRST Run for the Roses 5k and 1k Guided Garden Walk! Runners will start and finish in the beautiful K-State Gardens, take a lap on the track inside the historic World War I football field, and cruise by Anderson Hall, the Student Union, and Ahearn Fieldhouse. It’s a surprisingly flat, fast course where you’re sure to set a state record on our certified course! Knowledgeable “Purple Thumb” horticulturists will guide 1k walkers on a tour of the gardens and highlight exciting future plans for the gardens!
