Corona Del Mar 5k Run/Walk

Runners, walkers, joggers, shufflers, curious newbies, kids, this event is for you!!!!

I want to do this event, I know the course will be beautiful!

This event seems like it has a little something for everyone. There's a 1k Kid's event, even the little ones get a bib number for their run. The men and women have their own individual 5k event, which is pretty cool.

Oh, and if you are a newbie to exercise but want to try it out there's a 2-mile walk! This might be a good option for you if you're a pre-op or just had surgery and are trying to get an exercise routine going.

The course is very scenic, and local restaurants will be offering free food at the finish line. Better than the traditional orange, banana or bagel!!!

Now if you are going to win any battle you have to do one thing. You have to make the mind run the body. Never let the body tell the mind what to do. The body will always give up. It is always tired in the morning, noon, and night. But the body is never tired if the mind is not tired."
- George S. Patton, U.S. Army General, 1912 Olympian
