The Birmingham Track Club, a nonprofit running organization that has about 1,200 members in the Birmingham area, hosted its Spring Social on March 26 at the Vestavia Hills City Hall. About 115 runners met for a relaxed social run that varied in distances from 4 to 14 miles. The routes took them behind City Hall, down and across U.S. 31 to see the views from Shades Crest, then back up 31 to City Hall.
“It was a great opportunity to showcase the beautiful, yet very hilly, city and the new City Hall,” BTC Social Coordinator Katherine Dease said.
During the run route, runners were on the lookout for pink Easter Eggs that contained BTC tickets to redeem for gift cards. After the run, the families and their kids joined the tired runners for food, a bouncy house and Easter Egg hunt for the kids.
