Run the Runway

Strap in and prepare for take-off on an adrenaline-pumping 5k at the Schenectady County Airport, the home of the New York Air National Guard's 109th Airlift Wing and the "ski-birds" the world's only ski-equipped LC-130 Hercules Airplane. Hit the tarmac and reach unbelievable speeds on this flat and fast 3.1-mile course. It'll feel like you are ready to take off and fly!
