Come celebrate the official start of Summer 2026 with us as we kick off the season with a fun yet rewarding 5K in beautiful Sackets Harbor, NY. This event coincides with the Summer Solstice on Saturday, June 20th. Join us as we usher in the beauty and warmth the new summer ahead. The 5K course is mostly flat with spectacular views of Lake Ontario as you make your way along the 3.1 mile trek. Expect more that just a 5K run as we are teaming up with the 1812 Brewing Co., the Whiskey Coop and The Boathouse to extend the fun beyond the run!
Willow Running USA is teaming up with the Garrett W. Loomis Foundation, a 501c-3 committed to enhancing Fire Safety regionally in the memory of Garrett.
Join us if you love to run, love to have fun and especially if you love the sun!
