• Select the song to be played as you cross the finish.  It must be family friendly and we cannot guarantee that it will be played, but we will try.  Either way, it will be added to our Circles DC 5K Playlist on Spotify

• Improved course marking

• Course marshalls throughout the course to help as needed

Proceeds will go to Circles Douglas County which helps families in Douglas County become financially stable by matching them with middle- to high-income mentors who provide training in personal finance, employment, and communication skills.
