At it's return, 65 runners took to the start line for the first time in over 20 years!

As an example, past race proceeds were used for Christmas lights in the town square. We love highlighting our local community and putting resources back directly into our area.

PRICING SCHEDULE March 15th -->May 28th = $38.00 (If you want a shirt there will be a $5 fee to help cover the cost increase of shirt production) ******Shirts are not guaranteed for any registration after May 10th****** Course Description: Considered one of the harder 5 milers in the area. The course consists of 5.25 miles with 302 feet of elevation change confined mostly to the first half of the course. There are some formidable hills to tackle before letting you ride a nice tapered downhill to the finish (we think you'll enjoy the fast finish)! With only 5 turns, ample signage, and even volunteers at each turn, there's no concern of getting off course. There will be 2 water stations on the course along with bananas! Local Dalton Police will help in managing traffic for the duration of the race. This course contains some of the most beautiful roads and countryside views in our area and is very picturesque running!
