The Mike Eskridge Legacy 5K will return to downtown Homewood on Saturday, June 6, with a Kids Dash at 5:30 p.m. followed by the 5K race at 6 p.m.
Hosted near The Trak Shak at 2839 18th St. S., the event honors the memory of Mike Eskridge, a running enthusiast and founding partner of EW Motion Therapy. Organizers say the event is designed as a family-friendly evening featuring racing, live music, food, drinks and children’s activities.
Registration for the 5K costs $35 and includes a race bib, T-shirt and food and drink ticket. The Kids Dash is free. Non-runners also may purchase a food and beer ticket for $15.
The post-race festival will include food service from Oak Hill Bar & Grill, awards for top finishers and live music from 7:15-9 p.m. Awards will be presented to overall and masters winners, along with second- and third-place finishers.
