All ages are welcome, children must be accompanied by a registered adult. Children over the age of 12 must be registered. The Friday night 5K will be family-friendly, but it is on existing trails so strollers may be difficult. Well-behaved dogs on a leash are allowed.
We have added a winner category this year! New this year, we will have a male and a female winner from each of these age divisions:
Winners from each category will win one of our beautiful canvases of a picture from somewhere within YRSF taken by a local photographer.
Races will be timed again this year! Due to the use of existing trails the distances are not exact.
Check-in will take place at 737 State Forest Rd, Harpers Ferry IA.
