ARFS Annual 5K Walk/Run
The ARFS Annual 5K Walk/Run takes place in Young Harris, Georgia, offering participants a route through a college town environment and natural park settings. The event features a single distance:
- 3.1 miles
The course starts at Mayor's Park, located adjacent to the Young Harris College campus. Participants navigate through autumn scenery and into the trails of Cupid Falls Park. This section of the route follows pathways alongside a creek and passes near a waterfall. The path continues past the local athletic fields, providing views of the surrounding mountains before returning toward the center of the campus.
As the route loops back, it passes historic campus buildings and athletic facilities. The final stretch of the race leads to the finish line located at Sharp United Methodist Church. Due to the specific terrain, which includes changes in elevation and varying ground conditions, the use of strollers is not permitted on the course. Additionally, pets are not allowed to participate in the race. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
