About the 38th Annual Louie Fields Race and Pancake Breakfast
This race in Danville honors a local figure the event is named for, and it draws runners and walkers alike with several distance options, from a family fun run up to the main race. The course character is not detailed in what was shared, but the race itself has deep roots in the local running calendar.
The clearest reason to linger after you cross the finish is the pancake breakfast, which is included with your entry. It is the kind of post-race spread that keeps people around long after they have caught their breath.
