About
Get ready to hit the ground running at our vibrant 5K event on the Eureka Trail, a picturesque crushed stone path echoing the serenity of the historic Virginia Creeper trail! Join us in Athens, TN, where the thrill of the race merges with a good cause – supporting the heartfelt projects of American Legion Post #68, dedicated to veteran's programs, community enrichment, and beyond. Rise and shine on race day with packet pickup between 7:30 to 8:45 AM; then set your pace at the starting line for a sharp 9 AM kickoff. Whether you're coming from downtown Athens or making your way from exit 52, parking is conveniently located between Adient & E&E Manufacturing at the Eureka Trailhead. Lace-up for an unforgettable experience where every stride contributes to initiatives like suicide prevention, patriotic education for kids, helping veterans in need, and much more. Let's run for a reason and create moments to remember!
