Run for the Hills 5k – Fletcher Park – Fletcher, NC – May 2, 2010

Results of the 2010 Run for the Hills 5k

Sunday afternoon runs are becoming quite the rage at Fletcher Park. Here’s Run for the Hills at 2:00 PM on May 2, 2010.

Carolina Mountain Land Conservancy is excited to host the Run for the Hills Fun Run at Fletcher Community Park in the Town of Fletcher. This event is designed to raise community awareness about local conservation and the Fletcher Greenway. Outdoor enthusiasts of all ages and skill levels can participate in the Fun Run and all proceeds go toward saving the places you love.

This race is described as a fun run (aren’t all runs fun?) and they have used the term “non-competitive” but I think that’s just to encourage everyone to come out whether you’re running or walking. Just like all races the intent is a good time for people to get out and move around. There are awards for the top 3 females and males and for the first place finishers in each age group.

In addition to the 5K Fun Run, CMLC will also host a free family-orientated festival at Fletcher Community Park. Race participants can check-in for the race, and then enjoy the festival with their family before and after the race. The Finish-line Festival will feature various vendors and educational activities. Festival-goers can expect a fun-filled afternoon of fitness, music, and local conservation.
