Laurens features the Upstate's traditional historic courthouse square. Coupled with quaint restaurants and shops, Laurens is an ideal host for this event. In addition, the Little River Trail contributes to the area's charm. Over a dozen different architecturally significant historic buildings and homes line several stretches of the racecourse. The race will carry runners through many historic residential districts (S. Harper St., Farley Avenue, Todd Avenue, West Main Street), Laurens historic downtown area, and finishes along the Little River Trail.
Race applications will be available beginning Jan. 20 at all business sponsor locations and online. A t-shirt is included in the registration fee (guaranteed only for those that pre-register by March 21). All registered runners will be eligible for a drawing for a pair of running shoes provided by Fleet Feet of Greenville. Top M/F 8K finishers in seven categories will receive awards.
