Something For Everyone!
Run Lehigh Valley has been organizing the most fun events in the valley since 2010. The fall running festival is a great way for us to showcase what the valley has to offer through each of the unique downtowns.
The race will be in partnership with our official event charity – Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Lehigh Valley.
