Event Description
What a great way to kick-off the summer. This is the inaugural Hawthorn Woods 5k and 10k run. The event will start and finish at Heritage Oaks Park in Hawthorn Woods. Bring along the entire family as there is plenty to do at the park while the race is in progress.
 
A portion of the proceeds from this event will benefit the Hawthorn Woods Women's Club, a local non for profit, that serves women and children in Lake County. To learn more, please go to www.hwwc.info.
 
Course
The course is a single loop for 5k competitors and 2 loops for 10k competitors. Nearly the entire course takes place at or near the park area (a great venue for spectators). The course initially will have runners head out on a short stretch towards the park exit before turning around and coming back towards the park. Competitors will turn onto a paved path and make a loop around the lake before coming back out to the street running which divides the park. The 5k loop will finish with a long straightaway back to the race start/finish area.
