Race Info

The Freedom's Run was created by Dr. Mark Cucuzzella and Lois Turco to promote a healthier lifestyle in what is known as one of the most unhealthy states in the country. In the 10+ years since the race's inception, Freedom's Run has created a running boom through our small region and provided locals with a way to keep active and showcase our beautiful region. Through the Freedom's Run Grant, we've been able to donate over $400,00 to providing our community with local trails at their schools and youth and adult camps. So come join us and be a part of the West Virginia Running Revolution! Source
