You all are well on your way to finishing Abe’s Amble so why not come out and get battle tested by running/walking the State Fair 2 Mile Parade Run. A pre “amble” to what you have worked so hard for, Abe’s Amble, this race will provide an up-tempo mid-week run; yet it is far enough away from Abe’s Amble that it will not compromise all the hard work you have put forth. Additionally, if you have never “raced” before, this distance/course is perfect to test out race day conditions/atmosphere.
The course is a flat 2 miles with a water stop available at the 1 mile mark. The race starts at 5:30 PM on August 13th, and runs along the same route as the Twilight Parade. This year, moisture wicking shirts will be available with an awesome sketch provided by a local artist. Food and drinks will be provided post race for you to enjoy as you share your experience with fellow Army members. Door prizes will be given out also to registered runners.
Registration is $16.00 for non- SRRC members and $15.00 for SRRC members. All fees associated with on-line registration are embedded into the registration fee. Registration is available on-line only at the following address:

I heard this is a fast race, what is the general pace?
I will post the link to last years results.
This race is classifid as "fast" because of the course not because only "fast runners" run it.
It is geared towards those who want to try a shorter race before Abe's and no where else will you find a more energetic crowd!
You do typically hear that any 2 mile race is a fast race. I checked the stats from last year and the pace ranged from 4:58 to 19:54 per mile. There's a wide variety of paces so don't feel you have to be "fast" to run this race.
A better definition would be a "Fast course" and is used when the course is flat without a lot of turns. That I/C/W the crowd makes this a fast course.
