Event Description

What began in 1974 with 99 athletes paying a $1.00 registration fee to run a 6.8-mile course starting and ending in Crown Center, has evolved into an annual event that regularly hosts thousands of athletes over two days and three different event distances.  The 2019 event will be the 46th annual race; a race Runner’s World magazine has touted as one of the top 25 road races in the United States, taking place on Saturday, June 1, 2019.  The event includes three distances, the UMKC School of Medicine 5K, 10k and a half marathon.
