The Central High School Kilties Drum and Bugle Corps play for the runners at the finish of the Haley's Hope Hot and Hilly 5K and 10K in Springfield, Missouri. The race is one of the toughest 10K courses around, with constant and extreme elevation changes, and is deliberately held at the hottest and most humid time of the year.
