About the Burch Bear Tracks Race 2027
This is a school-based race that starts and finishes at an elementary school in Tyrone. The course offers a shorter fun-run option alongside the main race, so families with younger kids tend to show up alongside more experienced runners. The event raises money for cancer research and the school's physical education program, which gives the morning a clear sense of purpose.
The school hosts pickup the afternoon before, with an option to grab your bib on race morning as well. The shorter distance goes off first, then the main race follows not long after, so if you are running one and cheering for someone in the other, the timing works out well.
