Event details and schedule

TRINITY 5000 SUMMER SERIES INFO

We encourage all participants to preregister online before the event each week to be guaranteed entry and to eliminate standing in a crowded line to register. Also, after 250 participants have registered each week, online registration will close until the next race. Therefore, we strongly recommend registering online as soon as possible.

We will have packet pick up on Wednesday June 1, from 3:00pm-7:00pm at Luke’s Locker at the Shops in Clearfork. Participants that register for the complete series will use the same unique sturdy custom bib each week to eliminate standing in crowded lines each week for a new bib.

Post-Race Festivities

It’s a summer tradition. Runners and race walkers from all over the Metroplex gather Thursday evenings Downtown Fort Worth to run and walk 5000 meters ( 5K or 3.1 miles). Whether you are a competitive runner, mid-pack runner, jogger or walker everyone has a good time.

See some old friends and make new ones. It’s the summer place for active people and way cooler than television reruns. It’s also a family event with a free 1K Kids Fun Run.

After the race, adults can meet informally under the trees for the infamous Arbor Society (formerly the Bridge Club). We don’t plant trees or collect leaves, but socialize and exaggerate our running abilities. Bring your lawn chair and cooler.
