Organiser's Description
Welcome to NEPA’s flattest and fastest inclusive road race! The second running of The Wyoming Valley Run, presented by Allied Services in partnership with AllOne Charities, is coming on Sunday, September 1, 2024. This 10-mile road race stretches from Pittston to Wilkes-Barre, featuring some of the Valley’s best views along the way.
The race starts in downtown Pittston and crosses over the Susquehanna River into West Pittston. From there, the course is a straight shot down Wyoming Avenue through Exeter, Wyoming, Forty Fort and Kingston. You’ll cross over the iconic Market Street Bridge and make your way to the finish line at Public Square in downtown Wilkes-Barre.
This course is fun and approachable for runners of all levels, whether you’re chasing down a PR or striving for your first double-digit race.
Community is at the heart of The Wyoming Run. This year, the race will benefit five local charities: Camp Freedom, Candy’s Place, Northeast Sight Services, Shop with a Cop and the Wilkes-Barre Special Needs Playground.
