2022 Creek Week Virtual 5k Run/Walk
March 12-19
The Town of Wake Forest and the Clean Water Education Partnership (CWEP) will celebrate “Creek Week,” March 12-19, by hosting a “Creek Week Virtual 5k Run/Walk” at E. Carroll Joyner Park, 701 Harris Rod.
The “Creek Week Virtual 5k Run/Walk” is an innovative and interactive way for residents of all ages to learn about the importance of clean and healthy waterway and enjoy the outdoors at the same time.
From March 12-19, participants are encouraged to walk or run (at least) five kilometers along Joyner Park’s three miles of paved trails. Educational information will be displayed on signage along the trails that wind throughout the 117-acre park. As you stroll or run along these paths, you will learn about the importance of clean and healthy waterways.
Register & Log Your Workouts
At the end of each workout, participants will register and log their workouts through the exercise tracking service, Strava.
Why Participate?
Water is a critical resource for all living creatures. The “Creek Week Virtual 5k Run/Walk” is designed to help participants “connect the dots” between our quality of life and the health of creeks and streams, not only as a water source, but also as a source of recreation and aesthetic pleasure.
