Race Description
The Thousand Island Park 5K, known as TIP5K, is an annual memorial footrace dedicated to General TJ 'Demon' Costello, a fighter pilot in the United States Air Force. The event, which began as a family reunion race in 2013, has since grown to welcome participation from the local Thousand Island Park community. Scheduled for July 5, 2025, this family-oriented race encourages runners and walkers of all levels to join in the festivities.
Participants in the TIP5K can expect a scenic course that traverses dirt paths, grassy fields, and trails, though it is important to note that the route will be poorly marked and open to traffic. With no professional timing equipment available, runners may receive unofficial times, but the emphasis of the event remains on fun and community spirit. The race promotes a friendly atmosphere where walkers and strollers are welcomed, and participants can enjoy refreshments at the finish line.
