Sasquatch Strut 5K - 2026
This year's Sasquatch Strut was a complete success with perfect weather, a great turn-out and some fantastic personal bests. 122 runners circled our park and strutted their way over the finish line to complete the 5K. Thank you to everyone who participated, ran, volunteered, helped out, and cheered on! The official times can be viewed below: Our first place male and female were Reece Sanford and Kayla Overcash – Congratulations to you both! We hope to see you ALL again next
