We're proud to sponsor and be a small part of such a legendary race!
🏃♀️ Did you know one of the most influential runners in history raced right here in Vestal?
Just four years after becoming the first woman to officially run the Boston Marathon, Kathrine Switzer came to Vestal in 1971 to compete in the very first Vestal 20K Road Race.
At the time, women were still fighting for the right to compete in distance running events. Kathrine helped change that forever.
Nineteen years later, she returned to run our 20th Annual race. By then, dozens of women were competing alongside her—a powerful reminder of how far the sport had come.
On June 20th, we'll continue a tradition that has been part of our community for more than 50 years. Be A Part of the Legacy!
Whether you're chasing a PR, running your first 20K, or simply want to be part of a race with incredible history, we'd love to have you join us.
