About the 3rd Belarusian Carolinas Trails Friends Run 1M & 5K
The course begins at the far end of Park Road Park, dropping down a fast chute onto the Sugar Creek Greenway, a paved trail away from traffic. The greenway is quiet and tree-lined, and the route crosses the creek several times on wide bridges before the chute brings you back uphill to the finish.
Parking and restrooms are on-site at the park. The start and finish area has water, coffee, and snacks, though this is a cupless race, so bring a reusable bottle. The race benefits a Belarusian-American initiative providing meals and shelter for Ukrainians in need.

The 3rd Belarusian Carolinas Trails Friends Run 1M & 5K has been held every year since at least 2024. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Oct 24, 2026.
