Runners looking for a challenge this autumn are invited to try the Village of Montgomery’s new 10k River Run, an addition to the 5k race held the first Saturday in October.
The 10k is being added to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the race, and both the 5k and the 10k will start at 9 a.m. on October 5, 2013.
“We are so excited to offer another option for our runners,” said Rachel Lange, Montgomery’s River Run coordinator. “We hope it will bring out a whole new division of competition for this fun event.”
Participants in the 5k, 10k or the kids’ 100 yard dash are invited to register for the race online at signmeup.com or fill out a registration form at Village Hall, 200 North River Street.
Participations that register before September 13 will be guaranteed a goody bag with race t-shirt, Lange said.
The Village is also seeking volunteers for the event day from 6:30 a.m.-noon; interested parties are asked to call 630-896-8080 ext. 1117.
