New Course + New Title Sponsor = MORE FUN!
CHALLENGE YOURSELF WITH A RUN THROUGH BEAVER VALLEY APPLE COUNTRY...
The Thornbury Clarksburg Rotary Club is pleased to host this year's Blue Mountains Half Marathon and proceeds will go to Children/Youth and Health Care projects in our community.
T-C Rotary embraces the main cause that this race has always had — to support kids leading an active lifestyle. Funds raised from the event will go toward creating that support in our community, as well as to several other worthwhile causes.
The course changes will take advantage of the beautiful terrain and scenic country roads of the Beaver Valley and the vibrant villages of Thornbury and Clarksburg in The Blue Mountains. It promises to be a wonderful and scenic running experience — complete with beautiful fall colours.
