EVENT DESCRIPTION
Who's going to run the fastest mile in Buena Vista? Don’t want to go fast? No problem! You can stroll it or jog it!
We are joining in the celebration of Buena Vista's Christmas Opening with a family friendly 1 mile run before the holiday parade! Come out in your ugliest holiday sweater as you tour the town on foot. You could win the award for best holiday attire!
This run is stroller friendly! There may be a few bumpy sections on trail, but overall it's very smooth. Littles who ride along in strollers need not register.
We welcome all runners, joggers, and walkers!
