USA Masters 5 km Championships Set for October 4 in Syracuse

The USA Masters 5 km Championships will be held October 4 in Syracuse, N.Y. The championships will be held conjunction with the 17th annual Syracuse Festival of Races and will feature separate races for masters men and women.

A total of $9,000 in prize money will be awarded. Each national champion will receive a cash award as will the winning USATF club team in each division, and the top ten age-graded USATF masters finishers.

Housing information is available on the USATF website. This year’s championships coincide with Syracuse University’s Homecoming/Reunion Weekend. Hotel rooms will be in short supply on race weekend, and we strongly encourage all individuals and club teams planning to race in the USA Masters 5 km Championship to make their room reservations early.

A post-race “USATF Championship Awards Brunch” will be held following the race and is free to all USA Masters 5 km Championship competitors.
