TVO Roundup: CFA 10K, GoFar Run and New Calendar Updates

It was a light weekend for events in the area, but the latest TVO Roundup has a few results including one from an event gaining popularity.

The GoFar 4.2.1 Run in Pricevile offers 4-, 2- and 1-mile trail runs. It’s grown each year, which is good, and is attracting folks from Morgan County. It’s always good to see some new names in the results.

We’ve added a few new events in our TVO Calendar. If you’re looking for some fun 5ks, want to jump into the Cotton Row Runs on Memorial day or need a summer trail series, find them in the calendar. We’re constantly adding to it, as well, so be sure to check frequently.

On to the roundup:
