Where does the race course go? The 5K Grind is the hardest 5K in Cleveland, featuring a course with hilly terrain, dirt trails, and narrow pathways. The race starts and ends at Shaker Square, but this 5K is unlike any other in Cleveland. You’ll experience an urban forest, rock formations, and surprises along the way! The 1-mile walk option will be suitable for walkers of all ages and abilities.
