Wake Forest, NC
Entry is $20 now and rises to $25 after Jul 31, 2026, so registering before then saves $5.
The race takes place at E. Carroll Joyner Park, a wooded park with open paths that works well for a timed run alongside a shorter fun run option. The course is accessible enough that families with kids showed up alongside people going for a hard effort. Proceeds go directly to a local free medical clinic, which gives the morning a clear sense of purpose.
