It's a women's race - I think it's deliberately short to make sure too many aren't intimidated by it. I also think it's not 5K, because it's a small town, and they saw that "these paths add up to 4.5K, which is probably the closest thing we'll get to a round number - we'll take it!". At the end of May there's a 5.5K/10K race, so it seems hitting 5K is just too hard in our forest :o)
