The Black Squirrel 5K is a well organized race. The course loops through the campus and features a lot of elevation changes. Pre and post race activities are held inside which is nice on a cold day. Great post race buffet of food.

The course had plenty of beautiful scenery around KSU campus and a variety of elevation. You were fed a buffet of chili and other great snacks after. AG place participants received a cute medal with an acorn. Would do this race again!
