For the first time, the Austin Gay and Lesbian Pride weekend will include a major running event. It is a 5K (3.1 miles) that will allow participants to enjoy a run in downtown Austin in a fun environment. Starting from the Long Center, the runners will cover two laps of a route that will lead them across Lady Bird Lake (Town Lake) up to the 4th street warehouse district. The race will be timed and results will be published but the goal of the race is to welcome everyone and share a good time. A Slip-N-Slide will be provided at the end, and a water theme will be used throughput the race to keep everyone cool. The race includes a costume contest and cool prizes will be awarded; the theme is "Run on the beach!" Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=103567259679199
