Organiser's description

Thank you for participating in the 12th annual Running Free community race!

The Running Free 4 Miler is an out-and-back course from Eagle River High School to Hiland Mountain Correctional Center, with a loop around the facility on the security road before heading back to ERHS. The runners from our inside program will cheer you on from the yard and will staff the aid station.

If you can't join us in person this year, you can compete virtually. The virtual event is 4 miles, just like the in-person event. But you can earn the "Run Like Sarah" award by completing the most 4-mile "laps" of anyone in the virtual event. If you want to "Run Like Sarah," you are able to upload as many 4-mile laps as you can complete during the virtual event period. Results will be ranked on the number of laps completed, then by time as the tie breaker.
