ROAD TOWN, Tortola, VI- After over a month's break, road runners will begin pounding the rounds from January 21, 2017 when the Dive BVI Run Virgin Gorda 5K Series begins.

The series features 3 races- January 21, February 18 and March 18- with a 7:00 A.M. starting time.

The 5K series on Virgin Gorda will be followed by the Blenheim Trust 5K Series on Tortola.

The first race is scheduled for March 4, 2017 at 7:00 A.M. with registration from 6.30am.  There is no race entry fee and liquids are provided.

“For all the College 2 mile runners come and test yourselves over 3 miles. The courses are easier without a 1 mile incline,” started Blenheim Trust 5K Series coordinator Kay Reddy.

There will be a separate power walking section, awards for all who complete 3 races and for each age group category in the Blenheim Trust 5k Series.  Corporate, Group and Service Club awards may be available subject to participation numbers.
