RACE FAQ’S

WHY A 5K?

WaterOne has a passion for water because water touches everything we care about: family, health, safety, and community. We serve our community by bringing award-winning water to homes, businesses, and public places. When we realized that our water tower was exactly 5k from the City of Olathe's tower, we knew we needed to create an unique race for a good cause.

RULES

For your safety, please leave dogs, skateboards, in-line skates and bicycles at home.  However, strollers are welcome. We take safety very seriously. Please see our section related to COVID-19 precautions.
