Wheeling Prepares for Family-Friendly Ogden Newspapers Wellness Weekend
WHEELING — The upcoming Ogden Newspapers Wellness Weekend, presented by WVU Medicine, promises to be a family affair from May 24-25 in downtown Wheeling. While spotlight events like the Ogden Newspapers Half-Marathon and the Tough As Nails Urban Challenge cater to adult athletes, younger participants can engage in their own fitness journey.
Children ages 12 and under can join the Ogden Fun Run and the Tiny Tot Trot, both scheduled for Saturday, May 24. The Fun Run begins at 8:30 a.m. and encourages kids to stay active, while the Tiny Tot Trot, a non-competitive 100-yard dash for younger children, will follow. Entry fees are $20 for the Fun Run and $15 for the Tiny Tot Trot, both including T-shirts.
Managing editor Jennifer Compston-Strough emphasizes a fun, inclusive environment to promote fitness among families. Pittsburgh Pirates mascots and local businesses like McDonald’s and Chick-fil-A will add to the excitement. This initiative aims to instill healthy habits and offer memorable experiences for Wheeling families. To register for the events, visit ogdenwellnessweekend.com.
