Event details and schedule
This run/walk event begins and ends in front of Decatur High School, on North McDonough St., and traverses a scenic, if challenging, course. The RWTD5K will again feature a single 5K race where runners/walkers and dog-owners can run/walk with (or without) their dogs. T-shirts, awards, and treats will be available to participants as well as a sporty “race-kerchief” for canine companions. All proceeds go to funding the uniforms, equipment, and awards for our student-athletes at the middle and high schools.
Cotton, long-sleeved T-shirts are once again designed by local artist, Adam Pinsley, and will only be guaranteed to pre-registered participants. Limited free parking is available in the DHS upper parking lot off Howard Avenue. Plenty of free parking in the DeKalb County Courthouse parking deck on W. Trinity.
The race will be held RAIN OR SHINE. However, in the event of hazardous weather conditions (i.e., lightning or ice) the race may be cancelled. ALL ENTRY FEES ARE NON-REFUNDABLE.
