Event Description

This is the 2nd Annual Race hosted by the Allegany County FCA (Fellowship of Christian Athletes) to generate scholarship funding to send more students to local and regional FCA camps.  Students that attend these camps often have life changing experiences, so we do not want cost to prevent someone from attending!  In this year's race, runners will have a 10K run option, in addition to the 5K run and 1K fun run/ walk options. We are looking for competitive runners as well as casual runners/walkers for our 1K. All ages are welcome and encouraged!  Bring the whole family for a fun time during and after the race!

The race's name (Narrow Way) has duel meaning.  The race course follows the GAP (Great Allegheny Passage) Trail through a steep sided valley west of Cumberland called 'The Narrows'.  Narrow Way also references the path to eternal life, "You can enter God's Kingdom only through the narrow gate. The highway to hell is broad, and its gate is wide for the many who choose that way. But the gateway to life is very narrow and the road is difficult, and only a few ever find it" (Matthew 7:13-14 NLT). 

Registration discounts are available for students and for families (immediate adult family members only please, including parent/child, sibling, or spouse).  To request a family discount, simply select the 'Multi-Person Pricing' option at the bottom of the sign-up page.   Race managers reserve the right to reject registrations if abuse of this discount is suspected. Student discounts (Grades 5-12, age 10-17) are obtained by signing up for an event using the 'Student Pricing' option for each event. Students may register for timed events (e.g. 5K or 10K) or the untimed 1K Fun Run (registering for either event will include a t-shirt).  In addition, Kids under 11 may register free for the 1K (Fun Run) on race day (i.e., no online registration). Unfortunately, family discounts and student discounts can not be processed in the same invoice.  Please register your student(s) separately if you are also seeking a family discount for multiple adults.
