The Sprouty
The Sprouty is an annual running event held in Sharon, Vermont, featuring a 5K walk/run and a 10K run along the scenic White River. Now in its 15th year, the race supports the Farm-to-School program at Sharon Elementary School and celebrates community health, local agriculture, and Vermont's beautiful September landscape. The event includes a kids' fun-run loop around the elementary school, free for children 12 and under, who receive ribbons.
Prizes are awarded to the top three male and female finishers in both distances. Participants also receive free lettuce plants from Dandelion Acres, and early registrants get a Sprouty patch. The race is part of the Upper Valley Running Series and is USATF sanctioned. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
