A popular run that sold out in less than two weeks last year is returning to downtown Detroit.

The Hockeytown 5K is scheduled to take place on September 10th.

The event is produced by local race director Chris Uszynski.

He says participants will start on Woodward, run down to Joe Louis Arena, run through the Joe and end just outside of the new Little Caesars Arena.

Uszynski says last year's event was a hit.

"We had people from 22 states and nine countries join us that day for the Hockeytown 5K," says Uszynski.  "The beginning celebration of saying farewell to the Joe Louis Arena."

The race begins at 7am on September 10th.
