The annual Litchfield Park Run, presented by Waste Management, will take place Saturday, Feb. 22.

The event will feature a flat street course lined with palm trees, starting and finishing in front of the Litchfield Park Recreation Center.

The race includes three competitive events: a 10K, 5K, and a 1-mile race. The 10K will start at 7:30 a.m., followed by the 1-mile fun run/walk at 8 a.m., the 5K at 9 a.m., and a second 1-mile race at 9:45 a.m.

Medals will be awarded to the top three male and female finishers in each age group for the 10K, 5K, and 1-mile competitive races. Overall male and female winners in each of the races will receive special recognition plaques.

Ribbons will be given to all participants in the noncompetitive 1-mile fun run/walk. Pre-registered participants will receive an official race t-shirt and a raffle ticket for prize giveaways. Walk-up registrants will receive t-shirts, subject to availability.
