Doc Lopez Run for Health

The annual Doc Lopez Run for Health benefits the University of Vermont Health Network – Elizabethtown Community Hospital. Take in breathtaking views as you run for a good cause.

The Doc Lopez Run for Health is, “a race for the hardy,” requiring half marathoners to climb the challenging Spruce Hill between Keene Valley and Elizabethtown. The scenic 13.1-mile course starts in Keene Valley and takes runners via NY Route 9N into Elizabethtown. The 5K invites athletes of all levels to get a 5K PR on a relaxed, fairly flat out and back walk or jog course.

Start/Finish: The 13.1 mile run starts at the Keene Valley Lodge. It follows Route 73 to Route 9N to the golf course in Elizabethtown, NY. The 5K run/walk starts at the golf course and is an out-and-back in Elizabethtown. All events finish at the golf course.

Transportation: The bus for the 13.1 mile leaves Elizabethtown at 8:30 for an 8:50 arrival in Keene Valley. Parking is available in Keene Valley, but no pre-event registration or post-event transportation is available.
