Flat and fast courses around Shepherd during the Maple Syrup Festival.  The 5k walk is non competitive.  Competitors choosing to run the 10k must be able to complete the event in 62 minutes (10 min pace) due to traffic issues and an agreement with the festival and law enforcement.  All events will be chip timed in 2024.  Kids Fun Run will be at 9AM starting just outside the track finish line.  No registration needed for the fun run.
