Experience the magic of High Spring amidst the enchanting Dandelion Fields of Morgan, Holland, and Derby, Vermont, as you embark on The Dandy, a thrilling journey largely traversing dirt roads. Immerse yourself in the natural splendor of the East, where musicians serenade you along the course, adding to the vibrant atmosphere.
The half marathon promises an exhilarating challenge through some of the toughest yet most scenic terrain the East has to offer. For those seeking a gentler adventure, the 10K and 4-mile courses provide equally enchanting routes with more manageable grades, ensuring an unforgettable experience for all.
This year, The Dandy welcomes up to 250 participants, offering an exclusive opportunity to explore Vermont’s breathtaking landscapes. Registration fees include a complimentary pasta dinner the night before the run at The EastSide Restaurant, accompanied by soulful music courtesy of Patti Casey. After the run, indulge in a delicious lunch and enjoy live music, creating lasting memories amidst the camaraderie of fellow participants.
In memory and honor of Terri Weed, a beloved member of the community, a portion of all fees received will directly support Umbrella, an organization dedicated to providing crucial support and advocacy for women who have been victims of violence. By participating in The Dandy, you’re not just embarking on a journey; you’re making a meaningful difference in the lives of others.
