Fox Chapel Fox Trot 5K & 1 Mile Family Fun Run

Sunday, September 8th the Fox Chapel Parks Conservancy will host their first ever "fun run" through the beautiful trails and parks. This community oriented and fully inclusive will focus on promoting FC parks and trail system with a focus on health, wellness and community in the borough. Rust Belt Natives will be celebrating on race day with a booth where you can learn about & purchase plants that support our local butterflies & pollinators!

The event begins at 8:15am with a 1 mile family fun run/walk immediately followed at 9am by a 5k timed run.  All registrants and guests will park in McCahill park by 7;45 or alongside Hemlock Hollow and start the race there.  The 1 mile run loops Salamander park, while the 5k includes that Salamander loop and extends north into Scott Park before returning for a big finish in McCahill!  Please, no strollers or dogs on the course.

Free hot & iced coffee & delicious donuts will be provided along with music and balloons for kids, local vendors, sponsors, and a few fun surprises along the trails!  All guests, family, friends and spectators in the community are welcomed!  Come visit with local vendors and our community in McCahill park!  The race pre-party will be live ahead of the singing of the national anthem and starting gun at 8:15a! Visit our booth before, during, or just after race time and bring some plants home to support conservation efforts in your own yard!
