Race Overview:

A hometown 5K from Village Inn to Memorial Park Cemetery and back

The Village Inn Spirits Run kicks off at the beloved Village Inn, the local gathering spot where stories, friendships, and Friday‑night memories are made. This March 7th event sends runners on a crisp early‑season out‑and‑back route through the quiet streets of the community, heading toward historic Memorial Park Cemetery.

Participants make their way to the cemetery’s peaceful grounds, reaching the turnaround point near the resting place of Robert Reed — a moment of reflection woven into the heart of this run. After the turnaround, runners follow the same route back to Village Inn, finishing where the warmth, hospitality, and neighborhood pride always shine.

This event blends small‑town character with the signature Spirits Run atmosphere: a little gothic, a little sentimental, and fully rooted in local history. Whether you’re chasing a personal best or simply enjoying a meaningful morning run, the Village Inn Spirits Run is the perfect way to welcome March.
