Welcome to year 7 of The Old School @ LPP!! Guess what?!
No price increase! Everything else is increasing but not the price of this race from last year to this year.
There are tiers so get in early and pay less!
****We're adding a kids race this year so stay tuned. We're currently looking to put on a 1.5 mile trail run for the kiddos at 7:30am to kick off the day!***
