The Cookie Mile

Join us for the second annual Cookie Mile presented by Kookaburra Cookies, Fleet Feet, and Nike! The course features a fast, flat one-mile loop through the iconic Aksarben Village in Omaha, Nebraska. Starting from Stinson Park, runners circle the village before finishing on the corner of 67th Street and Mercy Road. All runners will be greeted at the finish line with a custom finisher medal, exclusive finisher t-shirt, and a fresh-baked Kookaburra cookie.

Packet Pickup will be at Inner Rail Food Hall on Friday, June 26. Time is TBD.
