Polar Bear Run / Walk

The Polar Bear Run/Walk is an IAC tradition to enjoy our host city and get some movement into the morning before a full day of learning. Our 5K (~3.1 mile) route takes us past popular landmarks. Whether you’re a serious runner, a slow stroller, a wheeling roller, or anywhere in between, all IACers are welcome. (Routes are chosen with attention to curb cuts, sidewalks, and walking paths.)

If 5K is too long, landmarks offer shorter options. If you’re feeling speedy and want to do the loop twice, go for it! We begin from the conference hotel lobby. Please arrive on time so we can return before the first session of the day.
