Event Information

Race Description

**No dogs are allowed at this venue so please plan accordingly**
Runners, walkers and nature-lovers of all types are invited to participate in PLC’s 2nd annual Farm Run. Start at the barn and run through the farm past scenic vistas and animals on this combination trail/grass/concrete 5k course. Plus: a 1-mile run/walk option.

All runners can enjoy a beer (for those over 21) or hot chocolate as well as s’mores around the fire pit after the race. The Shoe Bus Mobile Fitness Boutique will also provide pre-race group stretching and post-race “Yoga For Runners” from certified yoga teachers. 

In early 2018, an agreement was made which will allow PLC to buy the development rights of 92 of the 213 acres that make up what many know as “The Farm”– Crossnore School & Children’s Home along Reynolda Road. The agreement will protect the land from development by what’s known as a conservation easement. Crossnore will still own the land, but the agreement will keep intact a tract of land that has generated memories for scores of children for more than a century.

Registration includes long sleeve T-shirt. Proceeds from the event will support Piedmont Land Conservancy annual operating expenses.

This event will be timed using a bibtag timing chips. The timing chip will be on the back of the run number. Please make sure your number is clearly visible on the front of your body. This will not need to be turned back in after the race – it is disposable. It will be a chip time start. That means your time will not start until you reach the start timing mat. Make sure your number is clearly visible on the front of your body. Gun Time is the time the gun/horn started the event. Chip Time is the time your chip crossed the start timing mat. The awards for this event are based on Chip Time.

Award Categories:

  • Top 1 M/F Overall
  • Top 1 M/F Age Groups: 19 and Under, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60+
  • Top 3 Overall in the Mile (not chip timed, first 3 across line)

 

Parking Information

**No dogs are allowed at this venue so please plan accordingly.**
Everyone will need to enter through the main entrance at 1001 Reynolda Rd. NOT the entrance to the farm area, near the Coffee Park shopping center. The main entrance is closer towards downtown and the bridge over Northwest blvd.

There are 100+ paved spots in the larger parking areas around campus, mostly on the opposite end of campus than the farm. Feel free to use any of these spots, just know you will have a longer than anticipated walk to the barn and farm area. We will have staff and volunteers to direct you to check-in and the starting line. Please allow a little extra time to park and check-in. Check-in begins at 1:30 and the one-mile race starts at 2:30, the 5k begins at 3pm with Kids Dash and awards starting around 4pm.

The Shoe Bus is also going to provide “bag and key drop” service at their mobile bus.
