Race Info
The 5K is an out-and-back course that starts and finishes at the Canal Place stage in downtown Cumberland, Maryland. It heads northwest onto the Great Allegheny Passage rail trail, climbing steadily for about 2.5 kilometers before turning around and running back downhill to the finish. It is held on the same morning as the half marathon.
