The 18th annual Lacey 5K took place on August 25, 2018. Online pre-registration cost $25 and included a nice tech tee. This race is an extremely popular local run benefitting substance abuse prevention. The USATF certified course was a flat and fast course though a residential area with plenty water stops. Many runners had fast finishing times. In some races, 10 minute miles will get you an age group win, NOT IN THIS RACE.

The finisher celebration included Jersey Mike subs, Wendy’s drinks, and bananas, oranges, watermelon and bagels. After the awards there were plenty of great giveaways, like a bicycle!
