The 4th Annual Main Street 5k Run was held May 5th and enjoying beautiful weather the event recorded a record number of registered runners and was truly a family friendly event.

Sponsored by the Forney Economic Development Corporation and supported by a host of Forney businesses and charity organizations, this year 235 runners entered the Main Street 5k Run and many Forney families trained and participated together.

Rockwall resident, Jose Lopez was awarded first place with a chip time of  16:47.4 in a simple route that started in the middle of Main Street in downtown and ran east on Main Street in order to circle through the Forney Community Park, runners finished back in downtown.
