About the Over the River and Through the Woods 5K/10K
The course runs through Reeder Park and along a newer trail, so there is natural scenery rather than pavement the whole way. Both distance options share that same setting, and the route feels more like a park run than a road race.
The morning stretches well past the finish with a food truck, face painting for kids, and a farmers market and vendor fair. Packet pickup happens at the park shelter before the start, with race-day registration available there as well.
