Organiser's Description
The classic is back! Join us for the 1st revival of the Nun Run at Rosaryville
The Run
Come to race in your favorite running gear or dressed as your favorite nun. Either way youre sure to pass a good time striding over the beautiful grounds of The Rosaryville Retreat Center. Both the 1 mile and the 5K Run will have that cross country feel as you race your way throughout the pine trees lining this beautiful property, and around the lake and through the historic cemeteries. You'll be running on grass and gravel on the route with a little up and down, so make sure your shoes have good traction and your ankles are strong.
Youll finish strong and grab a commemorative finishers medal across the finish line, where you can then proceed to revel in your victory with food and drink.
