Invest in Excellence 5K

The 4th Annual Invest In Excellence 5K is hosted by the Nevada R-5 Foundation in Nevada, Missouri. This 5K road race supports teacher appreciation and student success, with a portion of proceeds benefiting the Nevada R-5 Cross Country team. The course is described as easy, with gradual inclines and declines, making it accessible for a wide range of runners.

Awards include overall top male and female finishers in each age category (18 & under, 19–29, 30–39, 40–49, 50–59, 60–69, 70+), and every participant receives a T-shirt. The event takes place at 800 W Hickory. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
