Join us for the 29th Annual Woodstock Freedom Run on July 4th in Downtown Woodstock! We have a new course and gathering area for the race. On race day we will gather at the Arts Green Space on Market Street. The start/finish line will be on Market Street in front of the Stage at the Green Space.
The BIG news this year is that we have added a 10K to the day's activities!!! No need to drive anywhere else if you are wanting to run a fast 10K race on our national holiday, and unlike the other 10K options around the state, we have a great parade afterwards!
