PITTSFIELD, Mass. -- The ninth annual MountainOne Thankful 5K will be held on Thursday, Nov. 28, at 9 a.m. at Berkshire Community College.
 
The event will have runners and walkers completing a 5-kilometer course that will travel along West Street, thru the Berkshire Community College property out along West Street to Meadowridge and along the Woodland Drive cul-de-sac before returning to West Street and finishing in the Patterson Fieldhouse Parking Lot.
 
Residents are asked to use caution and reduced speeds when traveling along these roads between the hours of 8 and 10 a.m. on Thursday. Pittsfield Police will be along the course to ensure safe passage of all the participants.
 
The Berkshire Running Foundation hosts the annual event in which proceeds are donated to the South Community Food Pantry.
