The post-race party featuring food, beer and music will be staged there as well. We will have plenty of banquet tables and chairs set up for comfortable seating for all.

The 5k run/walk will take place on the scenic and beautiful cross country course located entirely within Wake Med Soccer Park. It’s a nationally known course that has played host to the A.C.C cross country championships. The start/finish line is right by the event staging and party area. The packed gravel course is wide and extremely well maintained.
