5K run/walk and 10K run
Get ready for the 47th Annual Fowl Fun Run, starting at Mount Vernon Christian School in Mount Vernon, WA! Choose between a 5K run/walk or a 10K run, both set on flat, low-traffic farm roads in scenic Skagit Valley. After the race, enjoy food, refreshments, and a chance to win a pumpkin pie. Festive costumes are highly encouraged—don’t miss the fun!
Course
The 10K is a flat loop on farming roads south of downtown Mount Vernon with a short out and back section on Dike Road. The 5K is a flat course with an out-and-back section on Britt Road. Both races will start in front of the gym at Mount Vernon Christian School. The courses are not closed to vehicle traffic, but both courses have been designed to avoid crossing any dangerous intersections. One aid station will be located near the 3 mile mark on the 10K course assuming that the wind doesn’t blow it away!
Almost any type of weather is possible at this time of year in the valley. There is usually a strong headwind on Dike Road in late fall, but also be prepared for rain and cold temperatures.
