Event overview
The Ron Shields Perry 5000 is a community race in New Bloomfield, Pennsylvania, organized by Perry County Road Runners. The event includes a 5K road race, a one mile walk, and a kids fun run for children aged 13 and under. A street fair takes place after the races. The organizers support local fire companies in towns where races are held and provided scholarship awards last year to one male and one female from each Perry County school cross country and track team; recipients were chosen by the coaches.
