Event Description
The Grant Playground and Rec Association are happy to announce that the Dan Robinson Memorial 5K Run/Walk will be returning in 2021!
This event is held in memory of the late Dan Robinson whose love for God, country, and the community was well-known in Grant. Dan was instrumental in the formation of GPRA and laid the groundwork for the development of Kidtopia playground. The proceeds from this event will benefit Kidtopia and help support its continued needs. The course begins and ends at Grant Town Park and travels through the town's neighborhoods. All proceeds from the race help fund the continued needs of Kidtopia Playground.
The course: This is a USTAF certified 5K walk/run ROAD RACE and will begin and end at Grant City Park and will travel through the town of Grant. The course is mostly flat with a few inclines. Water and first aid station will be set up near the halfway point. Complimentary, nutritious snacks will be available to participants before and after the race.

1.) Male and female divisions: 14 and under, 15-19, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60 and over.
2.) Sleep-in Option: If you want to support our cause but simply aren't interested in getting up to a race, consider the Sleep-In Option.
