Event Description

The 2020 Lansing Lighthouse 5K and 1 Mile Fun Run will now be "virtual" events due to the ongoing pandemic.  We can't host you with music and a crowded start line or treat you to refreshments post-race -- but our beautiful course is open to the public, and we're ready to virtually cheer you on as you run a 5K (or mile) at Myers Park (or from your home or wherever else you choose! 

Here's the deal: Anytime from 5am on 8/29 through midnight on 9/6, run a 5K (or one mile) either at the Myers Park course or from a location of your choice.  Enter your finish time on runsignup using the bib number you were assigned at registration.  (If you forgot your bib number, you'll be able to use your email or the last four digits of your phone number.)  

Our traditional courses: The 5K and 1 mile fun run follow a flat, fast course follows paved and dirt roads around Myers Park and Salt Point.  The races start and finish at Myers Park.  While in past years, we've guaranteed t-shirts to early registrants and secured professional timing services, we have decided to waive all registration fees for participants with a focus on our community joining together in movement.  There won't be race shirts but you will still get a bib number and we'll have times posted (it just might take a minute longer).  We thank all of our long-time sponsors and encourage our community to patronize these local businesses always and especially now. 

Any donations made will support the Lansing cross country programs (modified & varsity, boys & girls) as well as charities that are important to our athletes.
