2024 Nomadic 5K Annual Run Summary
The 9th Annual 5K Trail Run hosted by the Nomadic Adventure Club was an exceptional day filled with community spirit, culture, and joy. With over 170 runners participating from Ultrasignup.com and walk-in registrations, this year’s event marked the largest turnout in the event's nine-year history. The use of bibs for the first time added a new layer of excitement, enhancing the professional feel of the race.
The post-race festivities were vibrant, starting with a captivating performance by Mongolian dancers showcasing traditional dance. The highlight of the celebration was the hot stone barbecue of a whole lamb, known as "Khorkhog," a cherished Mongolian dish. This meal, accompanied by a variety of side dishes prepared by the talented Nomadic ladies, delighted all attendees. A special thanks goes to the Nomadic men for cooking two whole lambs, ensuring everyone was well-fed. The event provided an incredible spread of food, drinks, and snacks, all free for participants and guests.
The day continued with lively activities, including a volleyball tournament, where winners received REI gift cards. Music, traditional games, and cultural performances added to the day's vibrant atmosphere, making it a memorable experience for families, friends, and new runners alike.
