Restoration House Ministries' trail race features permanent structures, pop up challenges, and mud pits that will not only give you a great work out but also satisfy that inner desire to OVERCOME! These same obstacles that will be used for health, well-being and competition will be a symbol of how we can overcome all of our obstacles with God's love working though our community. And in doing so, you will be supporting young women & men in overcoming their obstacles of trauma, abuse and addictions and helping put the homeless in our community on a path to restoration.
Appreciate health & wellness vendors, food trucks, and more.
The path is on and off road and is considered a trail run. Follow this link for a printable map & reminders. Path is accessible by foot year-round and is mowed starting in February.
T-shirt deadline: March 30
