About the GTC Green Valley Road Race

The longer option is a hilly loop through roads around Travelers Rest, with enough climbing that you will feel it by the end. The shorter option runs point to point, with a shuttle to the start included. Both courses start from Trailblazer Park, which has a covered pavilion and proper restrooms, not portables.

Packet pickup runs the afternoon before at a local running shop in Greenville, with a backup window on race morning at the pavilion. After finishing, several restaurants in Travelers Rest are within easy reach, including a taco spot and a pizza place that the organizers specifically call out.

Common Questions About the GTC Green Valley Road Race

Will I finish last at the GTC Green Valley Road Race?

Almost certainly not. Half the 10 Miles field finished slower than 1:31:25, and the last recorded finisher came in around 2:34:37, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the GTC Green Valley Road Race a good first 10 Miles?

It is a small race (142 finishers), which is friendlier and less intimidating than a big-city event, though the field thins out. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 10 Miles, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the GTC Green Valley Road Race?

The 10 Miles winner ran 58:23 while the median finisher took 1:31:25. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
