While the race is challenging for those race enthusiasts, it is just as fun for families and friends to come out and enjoy the outdoors and experience the thrill of being a part of a community fundraising event. There will be safety marshals stationed along the course and a water station at the halfway point! There will be prizes for all age groups! All Veterans will be recognized with a special token of appreciation. Strollers are allowed on the course.

Packet Pick-up will be held on Friday, November 15, 2024 from 3-6pm at St. Augustine Catholic School. Park in either lot and come to the Burke Wing of the school.
