The Free Run 5K
The Free Run 5K takes place on March 13, 2027, in historic Downtown Fayetteville, North Carolina. The event is based at North South Brewing Company, 304 Williams St., Fayetteville, NC 28301.
The program offers a single distance, 5K, delivered in two formats: an in person race on closed city streets through the heart of downtown, and a virtual option that allows participants to run on their own. The in person route passes notable Fayetteville landmarks, including the historic Market House. The virtual option does not require formal uploading of times and relies on participant integrity.
The in person race includes finish times and awards for 1st through 3rd place in Male and Female categories. Registration opens on September 1, 2026 and closes on March 12, 2027. Registration fees listed are $45.00 for the in person 5K and $57.00 for the virtual 5K.
The event description emphasizes a community focus and a single shared distance while providing both on-site and remote participation options. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
