Another option for a 4th of July race is the 2019 Neskowin 5k Runabout. Neskowin Golf Course will set the scene for the 8th annual event and it will begin at 7:30AM bright and early!
The course will take you on both an out and back and also on a loop on the streets of Neskowin. There’s one aid station on Hawk Street. The route will take you a tiny bit further than the typical 5k (just over 3.13 miles) but it’s a pretty flat journey. Check out the course for yourself here.
