SYLACAUGA, Ala. – Following strong turnout and positive feedback from its January event, Sylacauga Parks and Recreation will host the second Trail to a New You 5K on Saturday, March 14 at the Sylaward Trail at Lake Howard.

The free run/walk begins at 9:00 a.m. along the scenic lakeside trail. Packet pick-up will be held from 7:30 a.m. to 8:30 a.m.

Organizers said the second event was scheduled after many participants from the January 5K requested another opportunity to take part.

The 3.1-mile course is open to all ages and experience levels, from competitive runners to casual walkers. Although timed as a race, participants are encouraged to move at their own pace.

All registered participants will receive a race packet and goodie bag. Water stations and first aid support will be available along the route.

Medals will be awarded to first and second-place finishers in school-age, adult (19 and older), and senior (50 and older) divisions for both men and women.

Advance registration is required and free. Participants may register at Sylacauga.Recdesk.com or call (256) 249-8561 for more information.
