Crozet Trails Crew 5K/10k Trail Run + Family Fun Run
About this race
This is the major fundraiser for the Crozet Trails Crew, a grassroots community organization whose mission is to simply connect Crozet and Western Albemarle with trails and greenways.
The Course starts in Crozet Park (on festival grounds by pavilions this year) and continues on the Crozet trail to the east of the Park (rustic trail, so plenty of roots, rocks, and ruts), and finishes back at Crozet Park. All runners get a race T-shirt. Course map is posted on crozettrailscrew.org
There will be prizes for overall male and female: first, second and third (first place male and female get a bridge named in their honor!)
***From scratch Pancake breakfast included this year with Great Valu and Yellow Mug Coffee sponsors!
There is a shorter option that still gets you out on the trails, the Family Fun Run. The course will start in Crozet Park and go by the dog park. After the bridge it will turn left on a recent extension of trail(~.75-mile) and back to the park. This section will eventually connect the trail to downtown Crozet. All registrants get a t-shirt (but no timing or places are awarded). Kids under 7 years old can participate in the Family fun run for free if they are accompanied by a registered participant.
There is limited 10k Trail Race! It will loop by Lickinghole basin. It will cross Lickinghole creek (you might get your feet wet) we're currently fundraising for a 50 foot bridge to connect the trails here. If you can please donate to help with the bridge. The race goes out by Chesterfield Land and back.
*** POST RACE TRAILS FEST at the finish. With Pancake breakfast- made from scratch! This year the start and finish is at Crozet Park's festival grounds and pavilions. With live music, from Susie and the Pistols ON THE NEW STAGE ! Starr Hill beer. All of the proceeds will go to Crozet Trails Crew
