Looking for a fun way to warm up and stay active? Sign up for the Winter Thaw Run and Ride. The event will take place on Saturday, February 27th. A 5K run will begin at 10:30am and a fun bike ride will begin at 11:15am. Both events start at the IST Bridge (corner of Burrowes and Pollock). The 5K route will go around part of and through the golf course on the gravel road and will end at the HUB. The bike route will include 4 laps of the 5K route and will end back at the IST Bridge. Participants in the bike ride will need to bring their own bike and helmet.

There will be prizes for the top  5 male and female finishers in the 5K.  First place will receive an Osprey hydration pack from Freeze Thaw Cycles.  Second through fifth place will receive gift cards from Rapid Transit Sports.

All finishers of the bike ride will be entered into a drawing to win prizes from Freeze Thaw Cycles, KIND bars, Penn State Adventure Rec, and Purple Lizard Maps.

The entry fee is $10. Visit the registration table at the HUB on Feb 22-26 from 11am to 2pm. There will also be registration starting at 9:30 am on February 27 at the IST Bridge.
