Come and join us for the 40th Year of our favorite pool race!
That's right - this year marks the 40th anniversary of the July 5k/10k. If you're scratching your head, that's because the race started out as the Carter Mill Splash and continued there for 35 years before your enthusiasm for a pool finish race grew the attendance to where we needed a bigger pool! Hence the last 5 years being at Springbrook Pool. Whichever way you look at it, this is the only race put on by KTC that ends in a pool finish! Bring your family and friends to hang out in the pool while you run and then do a cool down lap in the pool after!
