Organiser's description

The CASA Superhero 5K is an annual event that takes places at White Oaks in Bridgeport, WV. CASA of Harrison & Marion Counties are joining forces again for the 11th annual event to raise funds to provide advocacy and services to child victims of abuse and neglect that are in the foster care system.

Activities all begin at Steptoe & Johnson. The 5K course rolls through White Oaks and features mixed terrain. It starts at the top of White Oaks Blvd (near Steptoe & Johnson) and heads down White Oaks Blvd. There are loops through various business lots before coming back to the main road. It's a long, downhill trek before reaching Rt. 131. You will then venture onto Barnett's Run Road, passing by 1-79 Trailer Sales and then head up the hill onto the gravel road. The course rejoins the asphalt and enters the Percheron parking lot, circling the building before emptying out onto the main road. There is a steady climb back to White Oaks Blvd. The finish is at Steptoe & Johnson.

Please note some portions of the course may not be suitable for standard strollers.

A special thanks to the Thrasher Group & Steptoe & Johnson for their accommodations and support!

Awards are given for overall 1st, 2nd and 3rd male and female winners, as well as each age division listed: 1 - 14, 15 - 19, 20 - 29, 30 - 39, 40 - 49, 50 - 59, 60+
