About the Wayne A Burlison Colon Cancer Awareness Run/Walk
The course runs through Mt. Albion Cemetery, a historic rural burial ground laid out on glacial drumlin terrain, which gives it genuine rolling hills and surroundings that feel nothing like a standard road race. The route is peaceful rather than urban, and volunteers are posted along the way to cheer runners through.
The distance choices include a kids race and two adult options, one of which does a couple of loops with a turnaround before Clarendon Road. The longer course passes the site where the race's namesake is buried, which gives the whole morning a weight that most local road races do not carry.
