Organiser's description
THE NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY OF CAROLINA CHRISTIAN SCHOOL IS EXCITED TO HOST THIS FUN RUN TO BENEFIT THE CHILDREN OF ST. JUDE CHILDREN'S RESEARCH HOSPITAL. St. Jude is a wonderful charity that treats children who are battling cancer, and ensures that every family can walk away without paying a single penny towards their child's medical expenses. The event will consist of your choice of a 1K or 5K run.
The 5K course has highly varied terrain including grassy fields, woodland trails, gravel roads, and paved roads. The course starts on the Carolina Christian School soccer field, then a single lap around the school, leading to a short woodland trail which opens to the scenic pastures of Brentwood Farms. It traverses the perimeter of Brentwood Farms on grass and gravel roads, transitioning to a short lap around the Brentwood neighborhood. It then returns on a pathway similar to the starting portion of the race, finishing with a final lap around the school.

Top 3 Male and Female Overall
and Top 3 for all age categories (excluded overall winner) 0-14, 15-19, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60+

The 1K will also begin on the soccer field of Carolina Christian School, then across a path onto the baseball field. Runners will circle the perimeter of the baseball, finishing with a lap around the school. This run is ideal for children because it is in an open area where they can be seen at all times throughout the run.
