GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — Runners and walkers gathered at Gerald R. Ford International Airport Saturday for the annual GRR Runway 5k and one-mile fun run.

Runway 5K
Organizers say the airport provides a unique location for this event because it allows participants to compete on an actual airport runway.

Runway 5K
The course started north of the economy parking lot, looped onto taxiway Juliet and runway 8L/26R - the airport's general aviation runway - then ended back at the parking lot.
