The Olga 5 and 10K Run and 5K Walk has become a traditional Saranac Lake summer event. For the past 27 years it has continued to support multiple community causes, including the Riverwalk, Girl Scouts and the Skatepark. This year we are very pleased to continue the partnership between the Rotary Club of Saranac Lake and the Saranac Lake Youth Center. Our goal is to raise $10,000. The proceeds will benefit our local youth through increased programming at the Youth Center and enhance the Rotary’s literacy program that puts a book in the hands of every child in the elementary school.
For more information, contact olgamemorialrace@gmail.com or call 518-891-5846.
The course is mostly flat, circling Moody Pond and passing by Lake Flower. The 10K is a two-loop course, providing a true 10K distance. After the race, stay for the raffle and awards ceremony, which will take place immediately following the last finisher.
There will be free refreshments available, and three water stations will be placed along the course for participants' convenience.
Awards will be given to the top three male and female finishers in each age division for the 5K and 10K runs. Additionally, top male and female finishers in two age divisions will be recognized in the walk category.
Join us for a day filled with fitness, community support, and celebration. Participate in the Olga Memorial Footrace, and let's make a positive impact on the local youth while enjoying a memorable race experience!
