From the Organizer
In 2021, we dedicated the race to Ron Shields as he was always involved with running either with the road runners and help restart and coach the cross-country team at West Perry. In honor of him, we have renamed the Perry 5000 the Ron Shields Perry 5000.
The 5k starts at 9:30am and the mile walk, and fun runs starts after the 5k is finished. Stick around afterwards for the street fair.
