A community of cross country runners will gather again at Ganondagan State Historic Site to take om the demanding Country Mile at Ganondagan (formerly call Charlie's Old Goat Run). this challenging five-mile (plus or minus) trail race leads runners through hills, streams, rocky outcroppings, slippery mud boardwalks, forests, and lush meadows. It showcases the camaraderie and beauty of off-road running while giving back to the community. Part of the proceeds help maintain Ganondagan's trails that are free and open to the public year round.
