Leftover 5k / 2k walk

About the event

Instead of a "Turkey Trot", let the food digest and run on the leftovers on the Saturday after Thanksgiving. Enjoy Thanksgiving with your family, get your Black Friday shopping out of the way. Burn off those extra calories. Our swag is leftover swag from our friends from the Canaan Valley Running Company and the Parsons Volunterr Fire Department Cheat River Triathalon.

Run around Mill Race Park in Parsons, cross the Black Fork Bridge, run arount the Nursery Bottom and back across the bridge to the finish line.
