Veterans Heritage Ridge Run
This annual fundraiser supports construction and upkeep of Sharps Ridge Veterans Memorial Park. The start and ceremonial area is at the Lincoln Park Technology Trade School, 535 Chickamauga Ave. Courses run in a loop on well marked hiking trails of Sharps Ridge that pass through largely wooded and hilly terrain. All events take place on the Sharps Ridge trails.
Ample parking is available at designated neighborhood locations and shuttle service is provided for those unable to walk a few blocks.
Participants can choose from several event options:
- 5K timed trail run
- 1 mile family fun walk
- 10K Ruck Race
- Virtual 5K
- Virtual 10K
Virtual events are offered as run anywhere options within a defined time window. Virtual registrants receive a virtual bib number and may post results to the event results page; virtual participants receive a race shirt but must pick it up at packet pickup and are not eligible for awards.
The RaceJoy mobile app is provided for both timed and virtual events. RaceJoy offers live GPS tracking, GPS progress alerts, and an audio cheer feature. To use RaceJoy participants must carry their phone and activate tracking while they complete their course. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
