Description

Details: What better way to spend a fall October morning post race, than in a cozy sweatshirt post run or walk munching on something sweet and savory? Sweets N’ Sweats will provide an opportunity to participate in a non-competitive, family style event, with a focus on FUN! This year we’ve changed the course to a beautiful trail run or walk on the Batchelder Trail 1.6 mile loop. Upon finishing, you’ll choose from a variety of mouthwatering sweets to indulge in from an array of participating sponsors providing chocolates, popcorn, cookies, donuts, and ice-cream.

Course Info

Course: Participants will have an opportunity to complete 1 loop resulting in just over 1.6 miles or 2 loops. We welcome dogs and will offer a category for first place Trail Wagger. Unfortunatley due to the terrain, strollers are not permitted.
