Seven Days Says:

Community members of all ages start 2012 off on the right foot on a 5K course through downtown. Registration, 9:30-10:45 a.m.; 5K, 11 a.m.; kids' half-mile and one-mile fun runs, 11:05 a.m.; food, awards and raffle, 11:30 a.m.

Full Speed Ahead

As fun as it is to party into the wee hours of January 1, let’s face it: Sleeping ’til 2 p.m. and nursing a hangover is no way to greet New Year’s Day. Folks looking for a fresh start begin 2012 with their best foot forward by setting their alarm — or perhaps forgoing sleep altogether — for RunVermont’s 24th annual FirstRun. Wacky costumes keep the festive spirit strong at this 5K with half- and one-mile fun run options; postrace food, prizes and a raffle follow in stride. Besides, pounding a path through quiet downtown Burlington shouldn’t be too hard of a resolution to keep.
