Forkland Festival Fox and Hound 4k
The Forkland Festival Fox and Hound 4k is a trail race located in Gravel Switch, Kentucky. The course takes participants through the hills, knobs, and countryside of the Forkland Community. The route features a variety of terrain beginning with a quarter-mile uphill section, followed by passages through open meadows and woodland trails. The race concludes with a downhill segment leading to the finish line.
Participants have the option to complete the course as a run or a walk. Because of the elevation changes and terrain, the physical effort required for this 4k course is often compared to that of a 5k on level ground. Registration for the event includes a T-shirt and a ticket to the Forkland Festival pancake breakfast.
Handmade awards are presented during the breakfast held in the shelter behind the Community Center. Categorical awards include a group for participants aged 70 and older. The event is held in conjunction with the Forkland Festival and Heritage Revue, which features local crafts and music throughout the day. Registration must be completed by early October to ensure the receipt of a current year event T-shirt. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
