Let's run away from 2020 and straight into 2021!

The Abilene Sports Alliance will host an inaugural “Running to 2021 5K” event to help everyone start the new year on the right foot. It’s a great way to walk off the holidays, and proceeds will benefit a winning cause: scholarships to high school athletes and grants to support sporting events that generate hotel stays and bring business to Abilene.

Along with the 5K, there is also a 1 Mile Kids Fun Run.
