Time to lace up those athletic shoes for Veteran's Day 5K run, walk
Runners and walkers – both those who are serious competitors or recreationally minded – are invited to participate in Fredonia’s second annual Veteran’s Day 5K Run, Walk and Roll on Sunday, Nov. 12, at 1 p.m.
The certified course, whose 3.1 miles lie exclusively within the campus, starts in front of Dods Hall, proceeds along Ring Road, follows Academic Avenue and reverses direction near the Science Center before the finish at Dods.
Trophies will be awarded to the top two male and female finishers, while medals will be given to the top two male and female finishers in eight different age groups. Long-sleeve shirts are guaranteed to the first 100 registered participants.
The registration fee is $15 for students, $20 for veterans and $25 for all others. Registration will begin at noon on the day of the race. Registration can also be done at the Fredonia Ticket Office, located in the Williams Center, or online.
All proceeds will go to WNY Heroes to sponsor a service dog for a veteran in Western New York.
