Pioneer 5 Miles Run
The Pioneer 5 Miles Run is an annual athletic event held in Limestone, Tennessee. Organized and managed by the State of Franklin Track Club, the race serves as a featured event within the Tennessee Running Tour. It is also an integral part of the club's King and Queen Competition series.
The race takes place at David Crockett Birthplace State Park. During the event, the park remains open to participants with limited access. While there is no formal awards ceremony for narrow age categories due to park access limitations, medals are provided to all finishers upon crossing the line.
Specific recognitions are awarded at the finish line for top performers, including trophies for the overall male and female winners. The event also recognizes leaders in several categories:
- 5 miles
- Top Overall
- Top Masters
- Top GrandMasters
- Top Senior GrandMasters
The competition is open to participants between the ages of 5 and 120. While formal ceremonies are restricted, the event tracks results across various age groups, ranging from 15 and under to 80 and older. Additionally, the event organizers provide a donation opportunity for the "Friends of the Park" to support ongoing restoration efforts at the venue. There is a no-refund policy in effect for this race. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
