The 8th annual Love My Mom 5K and Kids’ Dash takes place Sunday, May 1. This popular event that celebrates family and community is presented by Folsom Parks & Recreation in partnership with the Palladio and Kaiser. The 5K course is flat and closed to traffic, making it an ideal route for runners, walkers, and stroller striders – leashed dogs are welcome, too. The race starts and finishes at Whole Foods; the course includes the Palladio’s interior streets and surrounding roads. The fun Kids’ Dash for ages 10 and under returns this year, with medals awarded to all registered participants.
Participants in the 5K will be electronically timed and special awards will be presented to top finishers in a variety of categories including single and double strollers, top mom, top female, and top male. All registered 5K participants will receive a custom dry-fit shirt and special commemorative finisher’s medal. At the finish area, all participants can explore vendor booths, enjoy DJ music, and enjoy light refreshments.
Registration is open—sign up today! Follow Folsom Parks & Recreation on
