NYE Glow Run

The NYE Glow Run takes place on the final day of the year at the Heritage Oaks Golf Course in Harrisonburg, Virginia. The event utilizes the paved cart paths of the golf course, providing a surface separated from vehicular traffic. Participants navigate the course as the sun sets, creating a transition into the evening hours.

To ensure visibility and provide a thematic element to the event, all participants receive glow-in-the-dark items to use while on the course. While organizers provide these materials, runners are also permitted to bring their own illumination equipment, such as headlamps and flashlights.

The event accommodates various types of participants. The course is open to wheelchair racers, and individuals may participate with strollers. Additionally, pets are permitted to join the run provided they remain on a leash at all times.

The available distances include:

  • 5K Glow Run
  • 1 Mile Kids Countdown Run

The gathering serves as a community activity for friends and families to mark the conclusion of the year together in an outdoor setting. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
