Course Information

10K Run:

Why 6k? 6k is the official distance that women run in NCAA Cross Country and provides another distance to challenge yourself with.

The 5k walk begins in the Diamond and stays in the Borough of Hollidaysburg. The walk takes off down Allegheny St and returns on Walnut St through Historic Hollidaysburg and continues around High School and Tiger Stadium before going up over Union St and turning at the Blair County Courthouse to return to the Diamond, a true walking tour of the Borough!
