ROCovery Annual Run/Walk and X-Challenge

The ROCovery Annual Run/Walk and X-Challenge is an event held at Mendon Ponds Park in Henrietta, New York, with parking available at Stewart Lodge and the Canfield Woods Shelter. This event marks National Recovery Awareness Month and serves as a celebration of fitness and recovery for individuals and the community. Participants can choose between various surfaces and formats, including road paths and trail courses.

The event offers several distances and categories:

  • 5 km Road Course
  • 5 km Trail Course
  • 5 km Trail Course with X-Challenge stations
  • 5 km Virtual Race
  • 10 km Trail and Road Combination

The 5 km Trail Course and X-Challenge version incorporates physical stations for push-ups, squats, and burpees. The specific number of repetitions for these exercises is determined by the total funds raised by the morning of the event. For those participating in the 10 km "Twice The Fun" event, the course combines both the trail and road sections.

A virtual option allows participants to complete a 5 km distance at any location during the month of September. In-person participants receive a race packet including a custom bib and a t-shirt, while supplies last. Registration is open to all, with specific lower rates for children aged 10 and under. Financial assistance is available for individuals in recovery through a scholarship program for entry fees. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
