From the Organizer
Welcome to the 50th running of the Green Valley Road Race! Our host venue will be Trailblazer Park in Travelers Rest, SC. We have 2 options for you. We will have a revised 10 Mile course to get to slightly less traffic roads. It will still be a big 10 mile hilly loop. New for 2027, to honor the 50th running of the Green Valley Road Races, we will have the RETURN OF THE 5 MILE! The 5 Mile will be point to point and optional transportation to the start line will be provided as part of your registration fee. Course maps and more info will be provided at a later date.
As always with Greenville Track Club events, you can expect our courses will be well marked and accurately measured. Our venue is top notch with bathrooms with plumbing and a pavilion for a bit of shelter. Our awards will be premium and way cool. And I suspect there will be a door prize or two. After the race, enjoy a meal at one of TR's excellent restaurants like Tandem, Farmhouse Tacos, or Sidewall Pizza.
The 10 mile will start at 8:00.
The 5 mile will start at 8:30.
