&lt;p&gt;Headed to &lt;strong&gt;APTA Mobility Week? Lace up and represent transit!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Join us for the &lt;strong&gt;LIT 5K Run, Walk, or Roll&lt;/strong&gt;, a fun, high-energy event celebrating workforce development in transit and inspiring the next generation of transit and STEM careers.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Whether you're running the &lt;strong&gt;full 5K&lt;/strong&gt; or participating in the &lt;strong&gt;1-mile option&lt;/strong&gt;, this professionally &lt;strong&gt;chip-timed event&lt;/strong&gt; welcomes participants of all fitness levels. Walk, roll, jog, or run while connecting with colleagues and champions of workforce development across the transit industry.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This isn’t just a race — &lt;strong&gt;it’s a movement.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Participants will run or walk along the beautiful paths of &lt;strong&gt;Memory Grove Park&lt;/strong&gt;, one of the most scenic parks in the United States, featuring peaceful trails and stunning mountain views. It’s the perfect way to kick off Mobility Week with energy, community, and purpose.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Represent Transit&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Show your transit pride by wearing your favorite &lt;strong&gt;transit swag or a transit-inspired outfit!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Rock your:&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;p&gt;Safety vest&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Let’s make this a visible celebration of the professionals who keep our communities moving.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Timing &amp;amp; Results&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The &lt;strong&gt;5K race will be professionally chip-timed&lt;/strong&gt;, with timing chips attached to your race bib. Official race results will be posted online following the event.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The &lt;strong&gt;1-mile option is untimed&lt;/strong&gt; and designed for participants who want to enjoy a casual walk, roll, or jog while supporting the mission.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Commemorative Medal&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The &lt;strong&gt;first 100 participants to cross the finish line in the 5K&lt;/strong&gt; will receive a &lt;strong&gt;limited-edition commemorative medal&lt;/strong&gt; celebrating the inaugural LIT 5K at APTA Mobility Week.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Bib / Packet Pickup&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Bib and packet pickup details: TBD.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Participants will receive an email with pickup times and location prior to the event.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Limited &lt;strong&gt;race-day pickup&lt;/strong&gt; may be available.&lt;/p&gt;
