Gare di 5K vicino a Muldraugh

La Broad Run Pkwy è il percorso di questa gara su strada annuale: asfalto semplice, con un'atmosfera più da festa in maschera autunnale che da gara di club super tirata. È un "fun, Halloween-themed event," di quelli dove ti ritrovi alla partenza con chi punta al crono e chi invece è lì travestito a tema. Il bello è il mix: famiglie, bambini, chi è alla prima esperienza e i runners abituali condividono tutti lo stesso spirito di Halloween, con diverse opzioni distribuite per tutta la mattinata. Aspettati corsa su strada, un mix al traguardo di travestimenti e sorrisi sudati, e quella simpatica stranezza di ottobre dove il kit da gara e il vestito in maschera si mescolano.

The start and finish are on the TurfMutt South Great Lawn, putting the race right by the Ohio River in one of the city’s main downtown park spaces. It is a local, live Turkey Trot rather than a long-distance race, so it works for runners, walkers, families, and people who want a short holiday event before the rest of the day starts.
