Wayne and Jan continue to raise the bar at the annual Greek Fun Run. This year there will be a
24 hour run for those of you who would like to get started on Friday evening.
This is the perfect run for those of you who are training for a fall marathon or ultra run. You can run with many of the areas best long distance runners and gleen some valuable endurance racing knowledge.
Start/Finish Area - The Kurtz Residence, 10575 Kummer Road, Wexford, PA 15090 (look for the log home).
Course - Single track running trails around the North Park Golf Course and two small sections of road (crossing Kummer Road). This fun run will be good preparation for those of you running fall marathons and ultra-marathons.
Distance - This will be a timed run. You run as many loops as you want in 6, 12 or 24 hours. The double loop course consists of two seperate trails, each measuring approximately 4 miles. We have awards for the most laps run in 6, 12 and 24 hours. If you don't want to run 6, 12 or 24 hours, you are welcome to come and run whatever distance you would like. From one lap to 24 hours, and everyone is invited to the post run feast.

Parking - At the Kurtz Home, with overflow parking at North Park Grove on Kummer Road.
Awards Ceremony - Begins at 5:00 p.m. on Saturday, lasts about two (2) minutes - so we can get to the food.

Why the Greek name? - Wayne's wife Jan is the "Greek" and will be preparing all the food!!!
