Whether you are racing for a personal best, walking with friends and family, or simply looking for a meaningful way to support West Virginia communities, everyone is welcome to participate. The 5K will also serve as a Water Drive for West Virginia. Participants and community members are encouraged to bring unopened bottled water or make a monetary donation at the event.
