Challenge your physical stamina at the annual Face the Forest 5K Obstacle Course Run. Strive to beat the clock as you take on a 3.1-mile obstacle race that takes you through the hills, fields and woodlands of Thomas Jefferson’s Poplar Forest plantation, encountering obstacles (and some mud) along the way! Entry fees support children’s educational programming at Poplar Forest. The competition is open to families, individuals and teams of all ages.
