The Soles for Songs 5K is a running and walking event on the Panhandle rail-trail in Oakdale, Pennsylvania. All proceeds from the event benefit the South Hills Children's Choir's scholarship fund.
Course Details
The event is a 5K race. It follows an out-and-back course on the Panhandle Trail, which is a crushed limestone rail-trail. The course is described as flat. The event takes place on a public trail shared with non-participants, so runners are asked to keep to the right and share the path.
