About the Old Forestport Days 5k Run/Walk
This is an evening race held in Forestport, with a kids fun run starting things off before the main event gets underway. The route is not described in detail, but the race draws enough of a local crowd to make the awards worth sticking around for, with trophies going to the top finishers across a range of age groups. Gift cards to a running store go to the overall winners.
Kids who run the shorter race get a free donut at the Forestport Diner afterward, which is a nice touch. The post-race awards have a proper local feel to them.
