The Beat the Grandma 5K is a Running race in Grand Rapids, MIchigan consisting of a 5K.

Who's your Granny! A Grandma has won all but one year...can anyone step up and take the Grandma's down!!! We look forward to seeing all the different Grandma Costumes to be worn by as many of the brave runners that dare to...its a fun run to watch even if your not running...each year the fake Grandmas hope to run down the Real Grandmas due to the handicap head start lead that all women and older Grandpas get...See You at the start line which will be a little bit down from the zoo on Butterworth street at the corner of butterworth and obrien streets....the first runner leaves the starting line at 9 a.m.! This race is open to all runners but if you are a guy you start behind the ladies and try to catch them. It is a very unique and fun event so come on out and see if you can Beat the Grandma!
