Run for the Acorns

Run for the Acorns is a trail running event held at Genesee County Park and Forest in East Bethany, NY. Scheduled for October 5, 2025, it features 5K and 10K runs on wide, well-marked single and double track trails that wind through forested areas, alongside a creek, and over rolling hills with about 100 feet of elevation gain in the 10K loop. The course begins on asphalt before entering scenic woodland paths, offering a beautiful countryside running experience.

The event supports ACORNS, a nonprofit dedicated to enhancing Genesee County parks through outdoor education and activities. Registration fees partially fund breast cancer research. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
