December Christmas Light Runs

 

The annual December Christmas Lights runs will be held on Wednesday evenings at 6pm through the month of December. The meeting location will be Winthrop Park behind the ball fields by the kiddie park. The distances are your choice of 4 miles or 6 miles.

Wear reflective clothing and/or lighted vests and bring flashlights. Be prepared to run in the dark.

Emphasis is on friendship, festivity and fun while getting into the Christmas spirit. The course will be marked. All paces are welcome, however each person is responsible for themselves (meaning if you are going to walk or race, then you better know the way!!!). The group stops for about 10 minutes at the 2 mile point to check out all the decorations and lights at Dorothy Oven Park. Then, those who want to run 4 miles turn around and go back the way they came. Those who want to run 6 miles continue on a loop down Hermitage and Goose Pond Trail (yes, it is dark) and eventually back to Winthrop Park.
