Gold Mine River Run

Marion, United States • 8 Nov 2025

Gold Mine River Run 5K is a Saturday race held in Marion, North Carolina (28752). The event features a 5K off-road, cross-country course set in the Vein Mountain area south of Glenwood. The course offers a rugged, nature-filled route rather than a paved city path, emphasizing a woodland and rural setting.

A special feature is that T-shirts are limited to the first 30 registered runners, while medals are awarded to all finishers. The race is hosted through RunSignup and appears to be a community-oriented, low-key event with a focus on participation and enjoyment of the surroundings. Registration details and further information are available on the event page. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
