Bearcat Boosters announce 6th annual Harvest Marathon 

The Bearcat Boosters announced that the 6th annual Paso Robles Harvest Marathon will be held at Le Vigne Winery in Paso Robles on Sunday, Oct. 25. The event is sponsored by the Paso Robles Bearcat Boosters, a non-profit organization supporting all student athletes at Paso Robles High School, and Paso Robles Rotary.

“The marathon, half-marathon, and 5K courses will offer beautiful views of the vineyards at harvest time,” said Race Director Thomas Harrington.Harvest marathon

The event begins at 7 a.m. with the start of the full marathon, followed at 8:30 a.m., with the start of the half marathon. The 5K will begin at 9 a.m., and will be a scenic run through the vines.

All runners will receive a harvest marathon shirt, “swag bag,” and a free race photo. Prizes will be awarded to the top runners. This event is a certified Boston Marathon qualifier, and is recognized by the California Half and Full Marathon Series.

This year they will continue the tradition of hosting a beer & wine garden from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., and will have a live band in the garden area. There will also be an expo with several vendors providing giveaways, product information, and demonstrations.

All runners are welcome to participate. The public is also encouraged to come out to Le Vigne, “bring your lawn chairs and enjoy our event,” Harrington said. The Le Vigne tasting room opens to the public at 11 a.m.

The Paso Robles Bearcat Boosters provide a majority of financial support for the approximately 680 student-athletes competing in 23 sports at Paso Robles High School. All proceeds from the marathon will go to benefit Paso Robles High School athletics.
