From the Organizer
This event is in memory of our dear friend and Spartan Josh Lee. Proceeds from the race will be given to the Josh Lee Memorial Scholarship Fund at USC Upstate. The Scholarship Fund was generously set up by Johnny & Laurie, Josh's parents and it directly benefits the USC Upstate Cross Country and Track & Field programs. We look forward to seeing you out there! For those that are not able to attend, please feel free to make a donation to this great cause.
