SUNDAY, December 27 – 10am
At the Berks County Fairgrounds
County Welfare & Hilltop Road, Leesport, PA 19533
The location is THE BERKS COUNTY FAIRGROUNDS (next to Berks Ag Center where the race normally is). The distance is 5k: semi-flat and fast! You will run cross country and no roads. You can choose to run the course twice for a 10K distance, but awards will be for your 5K time.
The goal this year is a simple, fun, safe, in-person race that fits within the state guidelines. No indoor facility. There is a pavilion large enough for social distancing during bib pick up, hoodie sales, refreshments, and awards. Be sure to bring a dry bag so you can comfortably hang out after the run and catch up with runners you didn’t see most of the year.
Limited number of runners: 200 (sorry). Online registration only at pagodapacers.com (not yet active). No race-day entries.
Registration opens October 1st (mark your calendar!) and ends when 200 runners have signed up.
Race fee: $20 all ages. Hoodies sold separately.
