Dunning Dash 5K Road Race And Kids' Activities
Do you love Framingham festivities? Family time? Running? Then join us for our Dunning Dash 5k! Whether you are an experienced runner or new to Dunning or the Framingham community, be part of the fun!

The 5k road race will be chip timed. T-shirts will be handed out to all runners that register online by April 1st. The race will start at 9am - but final registration and bib pickup starts at 8am. There are chips on the runner bibs keeping track of your time, which will be posted online.

The race will be held rain or shine – so dress accordingly!

THE COURSE:
The start line is located in the circle in front of Dunning. Please refer to the link for the exact route: COURSE MAP

REGISTRATION:
Pre-Registration will end on Wednesday April 27th. Reserve your spot today at the discounted rate.

Day of Registration will begin at 8am but will be limited. It is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED you pre-register for the road race online. Once online registration closes, the registration price will be $25 for an Adult, $20 for Youth and $60 for a Family (2 adults and up to 4 youths).

PARKING:
We encourage you to park in the parking lot at Walsh or along the side streets in the neighborhood. (Please be respectful of neighbors and their driveways!). People will be running along Frost Street so parking may be limited. Parking in the circle will be prohibited the day of the race. Watch our facebook page for updates on parking options.

FAQs:
How long is the race?
A 5k is typically 3.1 Miles. This course is actually 3.2 miles – so a few extra steps for your walking tracker.

Is it a challenging course?
It is considered a basic run. No major hills. It's designed to encourage the kids to get out there and run.

Do I have to run?
No. You can walk, jog, push a stroller or just make a donation to the Dunning school and sit back and cheer on the runners.

What should I bring with me?
Anything you need to run a road race comfortably. There are no lockers or bag checks.

Will water be available for runners?
Yes! There will be water located on the route and at the finish line. We will also have some type of granola or energy bars and bananas available after the run.

Will there be prizes awarded to the winners?
No prizes – we want all the prizes and benefits to go directly to the kids at school. The accomplishment of finishing a 5K is reward enough.
