Run The South Half Marathon, 10K & 5K
The Run The South event takes place in Charlotte, North Carolina, at McAlpine Creek Park. The race features a course designed for speed, characterized by flat terrain that passes through shaded greenways and open gravel paths. Participants can choose from several distances held over a two-day schedule in June:
- Half Marathon
- 10K
- 5K
The event structure allows for a combination of runs, including a Friday evening 5K followed by the 10K or Half Marathon on Saturday morning. This multi-day format provides an opportunity to experience the course at both sunset and sunrise.
Registered participants for all distances receive a pair of Goodr running sunglasses, a custom finisher medal, and a race top, which is available as a t-shirt or tank top. Pacers from the Charlotte Running Club and Crown Collective are present to support runners during the event.
For those unable to attend in person, virtual options are available for the 5K, 10K, and Half Marathon. Virtual participants can complete their chosen distance at any location within a specified timeframe in June. On-site amenities at the park include a mimosa tent, and various registration tiers are offered for those wishing to participate in multiple race distances.
