About the Woolly Booger 5K & Main Street Mile Walk
The race runs through downtown Beattyville and is tied to the Woolly Worm Festival, so the streets carry a bit of Appalachian folklore with them. Main Street is the backbone of the course, starting at Town Square, and the surroundings are small-town downtown rather than park or trail.
Awards go out right after the race wraps up. The high school band plays a concert at Town Square later that morning, so there is a reason to hang around after you finish.
