What's Happening

The Flower City Challenge is back April 26 — half marathon, 5K, and a Kids ½ Mile all starting and finishing at Parcel 5 in downtown Rochester. The course winds through some of the city's most beautiful neighborhoods: the Susan B. Anthony District, East Avenue, Park Ave, Highland Park, and the University of Rochester campus before returning along the Genesee River. It's as good a tour of Rochester as you'll find on foot.
