Pave The Way 5K and 1K Fun Run/Walk
Pave The Way is a community running event on November 7, 2026, held on the Creeper Trail in the Alvarado area of Abingdon, Virginia at 21206 Alvarado Rd. The event supports Alvarado Bible Church Youth by helping send participants to the 2027 ARISE Youth Conference in Pigeon Forge, TN. The race is inspired by Hebrews 12:1 and emphasizes communal support for the next generation.
Participants may choose between these distances:
- 3.1 miles 5K
- 0.62 miles 1K Fun Run/Walk (family-friendly)
Registration details are provided with fees of $30 for the 5K and $15 for the 1K. The event listing notes a designated shirt deadline; participants registered by that deadline are guaranteed a race shirt in the requested size. The 5K entry includes a race bib and a finisher wood medal; both distances include a shirt and post-race refreshments.
A fall festival follows the races, with fellowship, food, seasonal treats, activities, and music. The event is hosted by Alvarado Bible Church and presents the race and festival as a community occasion tied to youth ministry and local fellowship.
