Event summary

Get ready for an exhilarating experience at the Worthington Summer 5k Running Series, taking place from July 10th to August 14th, 2025, in the picturesque Somers, Capitol! This exciting cross-country running series invites participants to navigate the stunning trails of Worthington Vineyards. As you tackle the mountainous terrain, you'll be treated to breathtaking views of the vineyard, serene ponds, and the iconic Covered Bridge.

Join us every Thursday evening at 5:15 PM, with races starting promptly at 5:45 PM. This year, the series features two special hand-timed races on August 7th and August 14th, where results will be posted to RunSignUp! Plus, on August 14th, a new 1-mile hand-timed option will be available for those looking for a shorter challenge. Not only will you enjoy an energizing run, but your participation will also contribute to a great cause—donations made will support Shoe4Africa in building the first children's cancer hospital in Sub-Saharan Africa. Don't miss out on this opportunity to run for a cause while enjoying the beauty of nature!
