Description

Join us for the 10th Race Back to School event in beautiful Downtown York to support the York Academy PTO.

New for 2022: a one-mile walking course. This course is for anyone who wants to support the event but doesn't want to go 5K. We've mapped out a one-mile stroll in Downtown York (starting and ending at the same point as the runners). You won't get a race bib (no timing) but you still get to be part of this great event and you're supporting our students!

  • Adults $30
  • Youth $10

Note: Due to increased operating and supply costs, the 5K will be manually timed (previously, chip timing was used).

Place

32 W North Street
York, PA US 17401

Parking

Parking is available in the gravel lot on Beaver Street. The York City parking garages (Philly, E Market, W King) offer free parking on weekends.

Parking is not available in the Warehaus or Upper School parking lots due to course road closures.
