Course and logistics
The course is 5 kilometers (3.1 miles) on moderate terrain. The route runs mainly on a dirt trail with a brief paved section and includes roots, small rocks, and uneven ground. Medical staff will be on standby. The event is organized as a fun run/walk, so official times are not recorded unless a participant requests a racing bib and time recording. There will be a snacks and water station near check-in, and an Italian ice vendor (Sunset Slush) on site. Spectator access points are available along the trail. Proceeds from the event benefit the United Way of Alamance County, with a focus on housing stability. Sponsors include local businesses such as Ciao Pizza, Harrison's, The Sweat Lab MMA & Fitness, Dave's Furniture, Shiloh Presbyterian Church, and Graham Sporting Goods.
