Description

Everyone loves beavers! Now in it’s 5th year, the Beaver Moon Twilight 5K celebrates the 2017 November Beaver Moon, with a 5K competitive, chip-timed run and walk on November 11. Come join us for a great evening run in Noblesville, score an awesome event shirt, and receive a custom finisher medal when you cross the finish line!

The Beaver Moon Twilight 5K name comes from the Native American name for the November moon. Moon names helped kept track of the seasons by giving distinctive names to each recurring full Moon. The November full moon was the time to set beaver traps before the swamps froze, to ensure a supply of warm winter furs.

This 5K run/walk, starting at 4:30PM, starts by running across Potter’s Bridge, the only remaining covered bridge in Hamilton County, then winds along the White River on the White River Greenway Trail, from Potter’s Bridge south to Field Drive, returning to Potter’s Bridge Park just before dusk.

The sunset at 5:32 PM should lend for a beautiful evening run, with the Beaver Moon coming out as you finish!
