Organizing a 5K Run

[cd98]

Has anyone ever done this? I'm trying to organize an informal event for about 50-60 people. I can't find any permit requirements anywhere. Is anyone familiar if such an event requires a permit or if we can just do it informally?

Thanks in advance.

I never understand this. These fun runs which shutdown major roads and cause havoc all of the city... for what?

Just go running normally like everyone else. If running is a social thing why can't people just run with there friends?

Not shutting down any roads. Looking to do it in Stone Oak along bike trails and side walk.
