What a beautiful (and humid) morning for a half marathon & 5K. All participants did a great job.
A big thank you goes out to all of our sponsors and also the North Posey Cross Country team for working the water stops!
As most of you know, our races are normally a 5K distance with a few longer distances every year.
In comparison, putting on a half is an entirely different experience. The process started a year ago as the Red Wagon and Posey County Commission gave us the approval to have an event. From then, every month we prepped for the race. Without the help of Matthew Menke, Jill Barrett, Braelyn Barrett, Brecken Barrett, race timers Tim and Andrea Roman To The Finish, LLC this event does not happen, period.
As of now, we plan to bring this event back on June 6, 2027! Please feel free to email us with any feedback you may have [email protected]
