WHERE
Hurricane City Park - Hurricane, WV
Course
This event will be a CHIP Event!! This is the 2nd annual Putnam County Glow Run at Hurricane City Park and we are very excited to be back again this year!
This is the same course that we used last year, however they now have a two lane bridge to get in and out of the park for easy access.
The course itself will be a circular course going up and around the park begining at the slides past the red barn past the ball field up the stairs past the old skate park then down the back side on the gravel part beside the reservoir back to the black top back to the slides. Making 5 complete laps is a true 5K. This was a very challenging run for everyone last year, and we look forward to everyone returning again this year.
The course will be lightly lit by luminaria bags but will be a true Glow Run and will start at dusk.
