Campus Recreation & Wellness Calendar

A 5k (5 kilometers, 3.1 miles) is the shortest and fastest road or cross country race. Every year, millions of people participate in these races across the nation. Running and walking are great cardiovascular exercises, targeting all the major muscle groups of the legs. Cardiovascular exercise promotes a healthy heart, lungs, and vascular system.
