10TH Annual
10th Annual Wicked Fast 5K was a running race held on October 10, 2026 in Troutman, NC, with an entry fee of $30.
This race has already happened.
It was held on October 10, 2026. Registration for this edition is closed.
Out of an abundance of caution, we have made the difficult decision to cancel this evening’s 5K due to the unpredictable nature of the impending weather and the potential for changing conditions.
The safety of our participants, volunteers and staff is our top priority. While we are disappointed that we won’t be gathering for this event, we believe this is the most responsible decision for our community.
Thank you for your understanding and flexibility. We appreciate everyone who planned to participate, volunteer, and help make this event possible. Participants, the Parks and Recreation team will be in touch next week with more information. Stay safe. 💚
