33rd Annual Fincastle Run holding sign ups now
33rd Annual Bank of Fincastle Run Taking Registrations
Registration is now open for the 33rd Annual Bank of Fincastle
Fall 5K and 10K on Saturday, October 19. The race begins at Central
Academy Middle School in Fincastle at 9:00 am.
The Bank of Fincastle Fall Run winds through the beautiful and historic Town of
Fincastle, Virginia, a part of the Lewis & Clark trail and past our
Botetourt County Courthouse designed by Thomas Jefferson.
Many runners take part in the race due to its challenging and hilly course
which is a great vehicle for training. Others walk, stroll and jog with
their friends, just for the fun of it. Each year we are thrilled to have
all Botetourt County elementary and middle schools register teams in the race.
Please check with your school in the fall to see who will be coordinating the
race team at your student’s school, and ask to be a part of it. Or just
register on RunSignUp,com today. https://runsignup.com/Race/VA/Fincastle/TheBankofFincastleFall5Kand10K
Your pre-registration includes a custom long-sleeve shirt and finisher ribbon,
fruit and Gatorade after the race. Chic-fil-A will be on hand with
breakfast items available for purchase, and K-92 will provide music.
Medals and trophies will be presented to the top individual and school team
finishers. Top finishers in each age group will also receive medals.
The proceeds from
the race provide scholarships to students from Lord Botetourt and James River
High Schools each year.
Our race pre-registration cost is one of the lowest in the region at just $20
for students 18 and under and $25 for adults 19 and over and $30 after October
4th and on race day. For more information please contact
