Description

Founded in 1976, the Susan B. Anthony (SBA) 5k gives women runners and walkers the opportunity to compete strictly against other women. The race has been successful every year in providing women with a non-intimidating atmosphere to challenge themselves to run or walk farther or faster than they may previously have. While the race attracts competitive women runners from all over Northern California, the field is composed primarily of Sacramento-based fitness runners. For many, the Susan B. Anthony 5k is their first race.

The race starts and finishes at Glen Hall Park adjacent to the American River. The course is USATF certified (see map), will be marked with mile 1/2 mile markers, has long straightaways, is shaded, flat, and closed to traffic so that fast times are possible on even some of the warmer Sacramento days. For those of you interested in sight-seeing during the race, the course winds through the River Park neighborhood. The one aid-station will be staffed by the always enthusiastic Youth Buffalo Chips.

In conjunction with the women's 5k, the Elizabeth Cady Stanton Kids' 1/2 miler is one of the few free kid's races in the area. Kid's can run alone or be escorted by their parents and then enjoy a ribbon, and a treat provided by Whole Foods, and burn off some more steam in the jumpy house.

Shirt Alert!

We are out of shirts and we now only have a "No Shirt" option with a very nice $15 price tag. This gets you a goodie bag, awesome course, and post race refreshments. If we end up with leftover shirts on raceday after the race, we will have them for sale for $10.00. The "starving student" price of $10 still applies (<=22 years old only) but there is no shirt.
