The third annual Music on the Run 5k, May 28, 2016, Cedar Beach Park in Allentown, will feature 10 live music acts along the 3.1-mile course and a post-race concert by the William Allen High School Chorale, which is the beneficiary of the race proceeds. A one-mile fun run/walk is also offered and encouraged if you would like to take your time and enjoy the live music.

The race begins at 9 a.m. on Cedar Creek Path near the pavilions in the western side of the park off of Honochick Drive.

The fast, flat and scenic course will be run on trails and roads through the Rose Garden and Lake Muhlenberg areas.
