Running with Rhythm 5K

Running with Rhythm 5K is the first annual 5K hosted by the Erwin High School Band at Erwin High School in Asheville, NC on February 20, 2027. The event is a campus based 5K and all proceeds benefit the high school band for new uniforms.

Online registration for the 2027 event runs from November 9 through February 18, 2027. The entry fee is $35 per runner until February 1 and $40 per runner after that; platform service charges and taxes are not included in those amounts. On site registration will be accepted shortly before the race.

All races start and finish on the Erwin campus. The 5K course has one water station about halfway. Volunteers will be stationed at each turn and signs will mark every turn. Chip timing is used; timing chips are attached to the back of the race bib, and bibs should be worn on the front of clothing.

All 5K participants will receive a custom race shirt; shirts are ordered in early February so late registrants may not receive a shirt or their preferred size. Water and light snacks will be provided near the finish area. Awards will be presented in the gym to the top three male and female finishers in each age group: 12 and Under, 13 to 15, 16 to 19, 20 to 29, 30 to 39, 40 to 49, 50 to 59, 60 to 69, and 70 and Over.

Dogs are not permitted on the course. There is a large parking lot at the Erwin gym; participants and spectators are asked to use the top three rows. The event has a no refund no deferral policy. Transfers are allowed only through Race Roster and must be completed by February 18, 2027. Live results will be available at the venue via a QR code and final results will be posted later the same day. Volunteer opportunities are coordinated by the race director.
