Speedy PD - Race for Parkinson's Disease The Speedy Pd has one of the most unique race courses in this area. Set at the beautiful Tuttle Creek State Park, both the 5K and 10K courses are USATF certified since 2013! Both courses are all on paved roads. The 5K course is very flat to the finish. The 10K course is also very flat and shaded throughout the course. Both courses include scenic views of the lake and a great atmosphere with volunteers and supporters lining the course. The race routes are stroller friendly, and we encourage the whole family to attend! You won’t want to miss it!
