Frank’s 5K: Run-Walk-Bike-Roll
Saturday, January 21, 2023 - 10:00am / Healdsburg Plaza
District 1 is honored to host CPRS President, Frank Carson, for a fun 5K run in Healdsburg. All ages and abilities are welcome! We’ll kick things off in Healdsburg’s Plaza Park at 10:00am with a quick warm-up before embarking on our route on the newly constructed Foss Creek Pathway. This out and back run will conclude back at the Plaza for prizes. If running is not your style, you are welcome to bring your bike, stroller, skateboard, or rent a E-Bike available in-town through BIRD. Participants are welcome to join us for a post-run no-host social at “Lo & Behold” starting at 11:30am. Special thanks to Healdsburg Running Company for sponsoring the pre-run warm up and prizes. See you in the Healdsburg Plaza on January 21 at 10:00am rain or shine. No RSVP needed, free to attend….just show up wearing gold or yellow and prepare to have a fun experience.
