A 13.1 mile race is returning to Washington early this summer. The second Kewash Half Marathon will be held in conjunction with Ridiculous Day on June 6th. Becky Harkema, Director of the Washington YMCA, explains the race route will start downtown in front of the YMCA, then go out to the Kewash trail and at 6.5 miles runners will turn around and return to the YMCA. Harkema shares she is looking forward to it and now is the time to start training.

There will also be a 5k option for people to take part in. To register contact the Washington YMCA or visit their website. For more information listen to today’s Washington Page.
