Brief Description

Our St. Patrick’s Day Green Theme is an exciting event for the entire family. This is an opportunity to help get in beach shape & have fun at the same time. With the 7k distance being so rare, this is a good opportunity to set a new personal record. A $100 cash prize will be given to both the top male & top female finisher, and medals will be given to the winner of each age group. With so many awards being given out you have a good shot at bringing home your share of treasure.

Course Description

This year's course will be the same as the years past. The course is mostly flat, but does have some low grade hills as a challenge. The terrain consists mostly of asphault, but it does tour some brick streets in historic Cloverdale. The course will wind through the wide streets of residential Cloverdale where traffic will be minimum.

Awards

A $100 cash prize will be awarded to the overall first place male and the overall first place female finishers in the race. Medals will be awarded to the winner of each age group.

Amenities

Course marshalls will be placed throughout the course in order to ensure that no runner gets off course. The course will be marked with several directional signs at turn points and lead & trail escorts will be provided as well. There will be one optional water station on the course at about the 2k point in the race. Refreshments will be provided for all participants to enjoy after the race. Also, those who preregister will get a "swag bag" with lots of amenities inside.

Packet Pickup

For those that register before the March 5 deadline, your T-shirts and "swag bags" will be available for pickup on Friday, March 11 from 6-8 p.m. in the Catherine Dixon Rowland Arena (formerly Delchamps Student Center) on Huntingdon's Campus. If you are unable to come to the packet pickup, you may pick up your packet from 8:30-9:00a.m. on race day in front of the old Cloverdale Middle School building. However, you may want to prepare for long lines at the late packet pickup site on race day.

Late Registration

We recommend that you register before the deadline on March 5. However, we do realize that sometimes that is not a possibility but there are some things you should know. After March 5, online registration will close. Your next opportunity to register will be on site on the race day from 8-9:00am for the late registration price of $30. After 9am on race day, the late registration will close for good. Also, late registrants will not get a T-shirt or a swag bag for obvious reasons.

Age Groups

For the "battle of the ages", there will be a customized St. Patty's Day medal given to the winner of each division as listed: 60 & above; 46-59; 36-45; 26-35; 16-25; 15 & under
