Brief Description

Come run with us once again in the 8th annual Fired Up 5K run through the neighborhoods of Virginia Highlands. As always, we're raising scholarship funds for Grady and Washington High School graduating seniors who want to go to college, but might need some financial assistance. This is a Run & See Georgia event, so come prepared to earn some points, get hosed down by a AFD fire truck and earn a very cool TECHNICAL T-SHIRT in the process.

Awards

Unique awards presented to overall Male and Female, Masters Male and Female and the top 3 finishers in age groups from 10 & under to 70+ in 5 year increments.

Other useful info

This a a mildly challenging course through some beautiful neighborhoods with only a couple of hills, nothing you can't easily handle. We'll have plenty of music, food, drinks, firemen - firewomen and fun for the whole family. TrueSpeed Photo will be there to document your run and are providing free downloads- who does not love a free picture of themselves? There is NO PARKING at Highland Hardware this year, but plenty of parking on the streets around the station.
