Back again for our fifth year and with a new name! Pearisburg Eye Associates has expanded to Christiansburg and is now called Clarity Eye Care. The Clarity Eye Run is a 5K or 10K run and/or walk open to all runners, walkers or anyone in between.
Awards will be given for top male and female runners including a pair of Nike Running sunglasses. Age group awards will also be provided. There will be some raffle items including another pair of Nike sunglasses which any race participant will be eligible to win.
A home made quilt with the course map and other items embroidered onto it will also be raffled to help raise money for ovarian cancer research.
There will be a Kids Run for the little ones which will be about 1/4 of a mile around a large block. Participation prizes will be awarded at the finish line.
Sign up is available before the race on Saturday morning, or in advance at the Pearisburg Eye Associates office and online. To sign-up for the race online, visit: https://runsignup.com/Race/VA/Pearisburg/EyeRun.
