Event Description

D.S. Sweetheart Run will be very DIFFERENT this year. What is different? Well, we will all meet up at the park that we reserved on the day of the race and start at the sound of the gun but the difference is, we must keep our distance to ensure COVID guidelines. Although the race will be timed, we will not block off the route from on coming traffic and will allow a limited number of vendors (in hopes that this will eliminate gatherings). The run will also be limited to no more than 100 participants. Whether you’re looking for a fun way to celebrate Valentine’s Day or score awesome swag, this event is for you! 

Once you’ve completed a 5K run/walk on Sunday, February 13th, you’ll get to open up your personal swag-box which will include everything you need to make Valentine’s Day extra special!

Age Group medals will be presented to the 1st place male or female of each age group. The overall winner for the 5K/10K male and female will be able to win a trophy and or a cash prize equal to their registration fee (Go to https://dilbertsports.com for age group categories). Awards breakdown: First Place Overall Female/Male and 1 deep in each age group - Men's & Women's 10-19, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69, 70+.

Singles are welcomed and encouraged to attend. Anyone dressed as cupid will receive a special gift bag.
