From the organizers

Hosted by the University of Michigan Club Running Team, MRun, this Open Cross Country 5k will be the first race to kick off the day and will be followed by both a male and female race for other collegiate club runners. The 5k course is primarily flat terrain with the exception of one hill that is run twice. It is grassy and a great opportunity for a PR! All ages are invited to race and prizes will be awarded to our top 3 male and female runners. We hope to bring the local community of runners together for an exciting day of cross country racing.

Live results for the college race will be posted at RunSignup on the Results tab.
