| Freedom's Run USA WV Shepherdstown Marathon October bill@freedomsrun.org http://www.freedomsrun.org/ "The layers of the past that the Freedom’s Run Course uncovers trace from the days of early invention and discovery to the most brutal day in our country’s history. Experience a living museum, preserved for our future generations. We start on a loop of Murphy Farm, a site where 12,000 Union troops surrendered and the temporary home of John Brown’s fort before it was returned to its original site in Lower Town. Today it is one of the most peaceful views of the Shenandoah River. Explore the Federal armory at Virginius Island. Pass John Brown’s Fort and trace part of the route he and his collaborators took when they marched from the Kennedy Farm on the eve of his famous raid." |
