The "Band on the Run" 5K course wound along the Luray Hawksbill Greenway Trail through natural and painted scenery. The Luray High School Music Department sponsored the race to raise funds so that more than 50 students in the symphonic band, concert choir, Marching Bulldogs, and the percussion and guitar ensembles could participate in a national music competition and festival in South Carolina. (Click on the photos and they'll enlarge and be easier to see).
Cows (above) pastured right smack in the middle of one loop. The land to the left of the trail is a riparian buffer, built and planted in such a way as to treat the waste coming from the cows and improve the water in the stream outside of the view of the photo. And the stream (below) rippled and danced alongside the whole race course. Oh and the best part? The mid-60 degree temperatures allowing me to run in a tee shirt and shorts, and an opportunity to traipse along the trail barefoot after the race.
