About this race
Proceeds from this fundraising event benefit the DEO Clinic which for 20 years has provided free healthcare to uninsured adults from Whitfield and Murray Counties when they lack the resources to access healthcare. DEO Clinic is a 501c3 non-profit.
The 5k timed race follows the paved trail around Haig Mill Lake. It is one lap, 3.1 miles long, with some rolling hills in the second mile. The trail is paved except for 2 sections of gravel over the north and south dam. It is a beautiful course and works well for all paces and abilities.
The 1 Mile Fun Run/Walk takes place on paved areas and is not a timed event.
Pre-registered packet pickup starts at 8:00 am. Race day registrations begin at 8:00 am.
***9/8/26 RACE UPDATES: We are thrilled to report records numbers of participants! Please be aware that some shirt sizes are no longer available!
