Chris Griswold Memorial Lancer 5K

The former race leadership team, led by Dr. Nick Aquino, a St. Mary’s graduate of the Class of 1973, has passed the baton (pun intended) to the St. Mary’s Athletics Department to do the behind the scenes work leading up to the race. Dr. Aquino is still very much involved and wants to ensure this incarnation of the Griswold Run is the best it has ever been.

The 30th annual Chris Griswold Memorial Lancer 5K Run/Walk will be held Friday, May 10, 2024 - yep, it's now a night race!  The race itself will kick off at 6 p.m.  The course begins and ends in Como Park - just as the Griswold Run always has. Most importantly, the proceeds from the race benefit the St. Mary's Athletics.

  • Pre-registration (prior to May 8th): $30
  • Day-of registration: $40
  • St. Mary's students: $20 (Coupon code: RunLancer5K2024)
  • Grammar School Participants: Free (will take effect when you sign up)

For more information on the run, you can download the registration form here.
