About the 2027 Winters New Year New You Fun Run/Walk
The race starts at the Winters High School track, with several distance options ranging from a short kids dash up to a longer road course. The road distances head out onto open streets, so traffic is part of the picture; volunteers staff intersections along the way. Proceeds go toward scholarships for local high school seniors who have run track or cross country.
Packet pickup runs the afternoon before at the high school gym on Railroad Ave, and race-morning pickup opens at the track itself, a block or so away. The start line uses pace markers to help runners seed themselves before each wave goes off.
