Make sure to bring your masks to wear before and after the running! We will be following all social distancing protocol as well.  

The festivities begin September 12th at 9am for he 8k and 9:15 for the walk. The route goes out on the "10 Mile Greenway" following the trail to pickup on the Jean Teague Greenway with the 2.5 mile turnaround just before Winston Rd.  

This out and back course will feature scenic woods and zombies, making for the perfect September run!
