WHEELING — Organizers of the Ogden Newspapers Wellness Weekend presented by WVU Medicine want as many people as possible to enjoy the event, from the hardcore distance runners to those who are just out to have fun.
And for some, “fun” might not mean a half-marathon distance.
So the weekend offers a wide spectrum of races that allow recreational competitors to join the fun, namely the 5K Run and Walk, both presented by WVU Medicine Children’s.
Those races are part of the full slate to be found this year on Saturday. The 5K run begins at 7:45 a.m. that day, while the walk follows at 7:50 a.m.
