Fall Race Events in Canandaigua
The Crosswinds Run Series is an annual set of autumn races held in Canandaigua, New York. The event features several distance options, including USATF Certified courses for competitive timing and accuracy. The races start and finish at Crosswinds Church.
The 5K course follows a loop through the City of Canandaigua. Participants experience a downhill opening mile before beginning an ascent on West Lake Road. The route concludes with a final incline through the Ferris Hills area. For those seeking a longer distance, the 10K course builds upon the 5K route. It extends further along West Lake Road to Butler Road before turning back toward Middle Cheshire Road to reach the finish line.
Available event categories include:
- 10K
- 5K
- Kids Fun Run
- Support Without the Sweat
The Kids Fun Run is a free half-mile course located entirely on the church campus. It is open to children from preschool through 5th grade. Every participant in the youth event receives a t-shirt if registered by the early August deadline.
The event operates as a fundraiser for The Spot. This organization provides essential resources such as school supplies, clothing, food, and footwear to students in the Canandaigua and Victor school districts. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
