About the Worth the Weight Race
The course runs through Old Westmont, a residential neighborhood with the kind of streets that feel genuinely lived-in. The route passes the Inclined Plane, which gives the longer distance some real character and a bit of elevation to work with. Food, drinks, and music are at the finish, and the race benefits a local comfort-goods charity.
