Walk the Line 5K - Start 2 Finish
Walk the Line 5K is the summer race in the Riverwalk Run Series, presented as a three-event 5K series that spans two states. The series includes the Trout Trot 5K in spring, Walk the Line 5K in summer, and Bigfoot Boogie 5K in fall. Participants who complete all three events receive a challenge item.
The Walk the Line course is a scenic 3.1-mile route that crosses the state line twice between McCaysville, GA and Copperhill, TN. The route follows the Toccoa River, passes through two downtowns, and includes a single hill. The summer event is themed as Christmas in July with holiday music, festive décor, and a riverfront atmosphere.
The race is described as welcoming to runners, walkers, strollers, and four-legged friends. All three Riverwalk Run Series 5Ks are Official Peachtree Qualifiers for the AJC Peachtree Road Race. The Walk the Line event emphasizes a mix of seasonal celebration and a short riverside course that connects two communities across the state border.
