    This race has something for everyone! Bring the kids, run your first cross country course, set a PR, or put together a team for some fierce and friendly competition! TONS of great prizes!

    5k RUN – 9:00 am start

    1 MILE WALK – 8:30 am start

    Not into a 5k? Nursing an injury? Pushing a stroller? The 1mile walk is great way to show yourself some love while also supporting this great cause!

    The Ironton Rail Trail connects nearly a dozen parks and two dozen historical sites in east-central Lehigh County. The rail-trail comprises a 5-mile loop around Coplay and Hokendauqua on the Lehigh River north of Allentown and a 4-mile spur west toward Ironton. Beautiful trail to walk or run!

    The trail follows the route of the Ironton Railroad, which obliged the future trail makers by creating a lasso-shaped corridor to connect iron mines in the ore-rich county to iron foundries along the river and the Lehigh Valley Railroad.

    PERKS: Short-sleeve T-shirt for all pre-registrants and post registrants while supplies last, clock & results board at finish, refreshments, instant results, time posted on the internet, course with no traffic on it. One free raffle ticket with a chance to buy more. Held rain or shine. No refunds. No mail shirts or awards.

    Race is being professionally timed. All registrations before June 15 include a race t-shirt
