About
This race is sold out for 2017! There will be no registration on race day.
This event has been over a year in the making! Trivium Racing will be teaming up with Gerald R. Ford Airport to bring you the 5K on the Runway Grand Rapids! This event is going to be amazing! Athletes will start by running through the tunnel that goes under the runway, then head out onto one of the major airport runways for a lightning fast 5K race!
Our charity partner for this event is the Make a Wish Foundation of West Michigan! This event is a must for your fall 2017 calendars (and your bucket list!) and is a great tune-up for your late season half and full marathons.
