Start the 2016 year off with a FRESH START 5K! New Year's Day is the ONLY day you are sure to have your BEST run time of the YEAR!
Prove you’re the “Hardy Minnesotan” the rest of the country talks about by joining the Eden Prairie Women of Today on New Year’s Day in our Fresh Start 5K.
You’ll earn extra Minnesota points when you walk or run the 3.1 mile trail around Purgatory Creek in Eden Prairie no matter what the weather is - crazy cold, snowing, blowing, beautiful & sunny!
And your goose bumps during the Fresh Start 5K will provide a college scholarship to a youth in the community!
Grab your fellow crazy Minnesota friends and walk or run the Fresh Start 5K with EPWT! Then brag all year about how YOU completed the Fresh Start 5K on New Year's Day!
