About the Run for Autumn 5K
The course runs on the Ghost Town Trail, a rail trail that heads out from the YPCC toward Revloc and back. The surface is what you expect from a converted rail bed: gentle grade, wide enough to spread out, no technical footing. The out-and-back shape means you pass other runners on the return, which gives the race a social quality that fits the occasion.
The event is a fundraiser held in memory of a local girl, with proceeds going to a few community organizations she was connected to. There is also a bench press competition available as an add-on for athletes who want a strength element before the run. Kids activities are set up for families who come to watch.
