Short review
Make history while preserving history on the most unique race course around - through nature trails and the Historic Village, all kicked off by firing a 100-pound anvil high into the air! Whether you're running or power walking, this chip-timed race will be one to remember. Post-race activities include museum admission for the day, photo ops, refreshments and awards! Plus your entrance fee goes to support the museum and its mission. Reservations available; walk-ins accepted.
The Course

Power walk with your friends while taking in scenic views of our Historic Village. GCV&M’s exclusive on-site course combines groomed nature trails through our winding woods with gravel byways amid our historic buildings, creating a route that is as safe and pastoral as it is challenging.

Wehle Art Gallery and Nature Center Chip-timed race results Photo opportunities with staff in historic costume Post-race goodies Donation to Genesee Country Museum to help preserve local historyAfter the Finish Line
