Race Directors: Betsy and Johnny Lyons
Normally, this race is run throughout Druid Hill Park on Valentine’s Day weekend. In 2021, Cupid’s Crush was a virtual 5 mile event that had participants run wherever the heck they wanted in the days leading up to the February holiday. Unprecedented times, man.
