Runners - please take note that Dam to Dam can no longer be responsible for personal items you bring to the race. Therefore, we will not provide the bag drop service from the race start line to the finish line as has been done in the past. Please do not bring any personal belongings to the race which need to be transported to the finish line. Any belongings left at the starting line or along the race route will be donated to Charity. Thank you for your consideration.
The new 5K course has 4 turns, faster and completely separated from the Half-Marathon on MLK parkway to the finish. First place in 26 age divisions will received Brooks apparel. All 5K entrants will receive Brooks socks.
Check out the Brooks runner shirt and Brooks socks all Half-Marathon & 5k runners get with your Dam to Dam registration! Yellow runner shirts for everyone. To assist with sizing, note the medium women’s cut, in yellow, and medium men’s cut, in grey.
