Description

We probably should call this event the "Most Rewarding 5K" as the greater the challenge, the greater the reward! 

If you want to test yourself more than your typical 5K, consider joining us for the 4th Annual Toughest 5K (Between the ADK's and the Rockies) on Saturday October 7 in beautiful Greek Peak Mtn. Resort.  You will probably run your slowest ever mile (mile 1) and your fastest ever mile (mile 3) in this one single event.  

The time of year for this challenging 5K is splendid with cool temps and the beginning of the fall foliage season. 

This unique 5K isn't for everyone but it just might be the challenge you have been looking for. Hope to see you there!

Limited to 300 total participants.
