Burns Park Run

Sunday May 3rd, 2015 Event start times: 5K 8:30am, 10K 8:40am, 1/2 mile Fun Run 10:00am

Join us for the 37th Annual Burns Park Run! Winding through a beautiful old Ann Arbor neighborhood near the University of Michigan campus, the tree-­lined Burns Park Run loop course has been a favorite of beginner and world ­class runners alike.

The Burns Park Run is a long standing and successful fundraiser, organized and staffed by volunteers, that supports Burns Park Elementary PTO programs.

Known for its family­ friendly atmosphere, the Burns Park Run 5K and 10K races annually draw 1,300 to 1,500 runners, aged 5 to 90 years, with over 200 elementary school kids running the 5K. For the youngest of participants, there is a separate 1/2 mile Fun Run around the park.
