Description

Come join us for the 5th Annual Dryden Ugly Sweater 5K.  This event combines "fun" and "run". Participants are not required but definitely encouraged to dress in costume (ugly sweaters) for this chilly run/walk. All race participants will have the option of receiving a custom Ugly Sweater 5K long sleeve shirt, winter headband and finisher medal. New for 2024, we have added a No Shirt/Headband option. All finishers will receive a custom finisher medal. The event will start at the Historical Dryden Hotel (Built in 1844) with most of the run/walk on the new Dryden Rail Trail. This event will benefit the Dryden Rail Trail Revenue Fund as they continue to need funding to complete and improve this beautiful Trail. All donations and a portion of the race proceeds will help this cause.

Post race fun at the Dryden Hotel immediately following your run. They will be serving up something warm and special that is always awesome and tasty. Beer specials as well. All of this free for event participants. 

THE COURSE

The 5K race event will start in Montgomery Park located just behind the Dryden Hotel. The first 1/2 mile is on pavement roads with the rest of run/walk on the newly established Rail Trail. The Trail is quite wide and flat (total elevation gain is 35 feet). It is mostly a grass trail but there are some gravel paths along the way. Best to wear trail sneakers if you have them. Here is a course map that will give you a sense of the 5K course, Dryden Ugly Sweater 5K course map.
