Summer Solstice Jupiter Mountain Challenge

Join us for a fun evening run on the Summer Solstice as we take on Jupiter Mountain.

The route is approximately a 3-mile loop featuring a challenging 1-mile climb to the summit, followed by a longer and easier descent back to the start.

To make things interesting, participants will predict their finishing time before the run begins. No watches, GPS devices, or phones may be used during the event. The runner who finishes closest to their predicted time wins.

Please bring a headlamp, hydration, and be prepared for uneven terrain. Walkers and hikers are welcome to participate.

Come out, challenge yourself, and enjoy a beautiful summer evening on the trails.

2nd Annual Nutty Cutters 5K
3/7/26
Start Time: 8am

Possibly the nuttiest 5K ever. Two laps at Marie Kerr Park, but along the way you might get sent on random shortcuts or long cuts. Think Chutes and Ladders. Come ready for a little extra distance.

Prefer a true 5K? Choose the “No Cutting” option and run the exact course. Prizes are random, since most runners will hit different cuts.

All participants receive a free shirt while supplies last.

$100 grand prize awarded to a random finisher. Other prizes too. Fast or slow, lucky or unlucky, it’s all part of the fun.
