Gare di 5K vicino a Clio

La 5K On The RUNway porta runner e camminatori sulla pista del Bishop International Airport a Flint, Michigan, per una 5K piatta e veloce un sabato mattina a inizio ottobre. L'evento principale prevede partenze separate per chi corre e chi cammina, e i bambini hanno la loro Little Pilots Run prima che inizi la 5K vera e propria. La logistica è un po' particolare per via dell'ambientazione in aeroporto: i partecipanti parcheggiano al Genesee Career Institute, passano i controlli di sicurezza con il pettorale o un pass per spettatori, e poi una navetta MTA li porta all'area dell'aeroporto. Gli spettatori devono procurarsi pass gratuiti in anticipo, non ci sono iscrizioni last minute, le borse devono essere trasparenti e l'acqua la danno solo al traguardo. Dopo la gara, le navette riportano i partecipanti al Genesee Career Institute per sidro, ciambelle e il ristoro post-gara. L'evento è organizzato dalla Crim Fitness Foundation, che unisce il running locale a un'organizzazione fitness con scopi benefici.

A health fair with sponsor donations is available at the finish area, and early registrants will receive a medal and race T-shirt.

A Kids Fun Run is also available, along with a virtual option for those who wish to have the shirt, medal, and bib mailed to them. The course is contained within the orchard, emphasizing a harvest-themed run after dark over a fast city route. Each in-person runner receives a small pumpkin and sweet cider upon finishing, contributing to the event's distinct Spicer Orchards character rather than a generic Halloween 5K. The event accommodates families, casual runners, children, and award-seekers by combining a timed race with simple fall amenities.
