Wyoming Valley Striders 20K Run

After careful consideration for the safety of runners, race officials, volunteers, and spectators, the Wyoming Valley Striders has decided to make this year’s 20K Run a virtual race. Although we are saddened not to share the day with our fellow runners and provide a top-notch race experience for them, we are excited to bring them this virtual experience! 

This virtual race will allow runners to complete the 12.42 miles on one of three days from Friday, November 6 through Sunday, November 8, 2020!
