Ogden Nature Center 5k

Ogden Nature Center is having a “Fun Run,” on Saturday, May 8, 2010. I don’t know how many of you have ever been to the Ogden Nature Center, but this place is great and they try really hard to keep the center clean and natural. The run is only 3.5 miles through the nature Center with pancakes served after. I have never ran this little race but through the experience I had of visiting the nature center I feel like it would be a delightful stroll through the trees. The 5k course is two laps winding through 152 acres on dirt trails. There is also a little race for the little ones, in which they can participate for free. Walkers will not be timed for medals, but are welcome and encouraged to participate. I truly feel like participating in these runs throughout the community is a great way to get to know other individuals, or maybe just a new way to discover new surroundings near your home. I personally feel like the Ogden nature center does not get the publicity that it deserves. All proceeds will directly benefit the Ogden Nature Center. Registration fees are $22 for adults and $14 for children 12 and under. After May 1, late registration fees are $27 for adults and $16 for kids. Take the family and go for a little stroll through the nature center. Learn something new about your local surroundings.
