Organiser's description

As promised, the spirit of Betsy Farris will live on in the hearts of runners for years to come! Introducing the all-new Betsy Farris Memorial Biscuit Run - Half Marathon - 10k - 5k! Everything is still the same as it was before the Treeline Music Fest cancellation. Time. Date. You'll still get a delicious breakfast burrito from Dive Bar at the finish, but NOW you'll also get a biscuit thanks to our friends at Ozark Mountain Biscuit & Bar. We've teamed up with Biscuits, Beats, and Brews: A Free Music Fest to keep this event running and we're pleased that we were able to do that. Haven't registered yet
