Active Southern West Virginia encourages the residents of Nicholas, Fayette, Raleigh, and Summers counties to include biking in communities as a way of staying active.
Due to circumstances around Covid-19, Active SWV made the decision to defer the Inaugural New River Gorge Rim to Rim 10K to 2021. In lieu of that event, we are hosting the New River Gorge VIRTUAL 10K with a walk and a run option.
Even though remote work and flexible schedules have been cited as desirable among the working class for decades, very few employers have offered the option until now.
The Rim to Rim Race is a running road race from one side of the New River Gorge to the other. This bucket list event will provide runners with breathtaking views throughout the course in Fayetteville, the adventure sports capital of West Virginia.
On May 15th the 2021 New River Gorge Rim to Rim 10K will be a running road race from one side of the New River Gorge to the other.
A virtual event allows participants to complete the race on their own. You will run or walk the race distance at your own pace and at a time and location of your choosing.
Quarantine recommendations state you should plan to stay at home for two weeks at a time. This means a lot fewer trips to the grocery store, and many of us are looking for foods that won’t spoil.
Whether your work life has changed or not, most all of us are under additional stress these days. Often, stepping away for a bit is the best way to refocus.
The ‘Virtual’ edition of the Kids Run Club program allows kids to be active safely from home, and then log their activity on a shared online platform to stay connected to the Kids Run Club community.
We’ve all found ourselves cooped up a whole lot more during the Covid-19 pandemic. Many of the things that motivated us before, such as group exercise, traveling to beautiful locations to run/bike/hike, gym memberships, races, and events have all been impacted.
The influence of John Henry’s hard work and perseverance can still be seen in the town of Talcott. Active SWV’s partners at Sprouting Farms are proof of that. Sprouting Farms is a four-season non-profit farm and an education and resource center located in Summers County, WV.
Active SWV would like to introduce you to the May Community Captain of the Month, Vickie Aliff. Vickie is the woman behind the camera posting all the amazing hiking trail videos on the Active SWV Bulletin Board Facebook page.
