Event notes

Welcome to the Ovid Strawberry Festival 5K!  This year we are offering a couch to 5K program to help folks get ready and enjoy the Strawberry Festival 5K on June 14th in Ovid, NY.  This program is free to the community as part of the STEPS program to encourage fitness and wellness in small rural towns. This program is open to all ages, and no previous running is necessary to participate.

Join us for an 8-week program offering two in-person meet-ups per week and a 4-day/week training program offering walk-run opportunities.

We will meet for the first day of the program on April 19th at Sampson State Park (near the military museum) at 9 am.  On Tuesdays, we will be meeting at 6pm on the outdoor track at the South Seneca High School in Ovid for 1-hour training class.  

Sign up and join us for one or both sessions per week.  

The training program offers three days of running/walking and one day of cross-training with rest days in between. This is a walk-run training to get folks jogging to a 5K distance.

Bring water and a towel to classes.  And wear running shoes.
