From the Organizer
8:00 am 5K Run/Walk. 9:00 am 1 Mile. Enjoy the scenic views of the Blue Ridge as you challenge yourself with a climb up Wonderland Trail Road along side other Blue Ridge Conservancy supporters. Run the 3.1 miles as fast as you can knowing that sticky buns, coffee, and even beer await as you cross the finish line. Same great course with new start and finish at Blowing Rock Robbins Pool.
