Published 12:15 pm Monday, April 18, 2011
The Carolina Foothills Chamber of Commerce is ready to run in the 2nd annual Warrior Drive 5 event to take place on April 30 at Harmon Field. Young and old and in-between are able to participate in the 5-mile run or walk along Warrior Drive. Cash prizes as well as hand-made Morris the Horse figurines will be awarded for the top three overall male and female runners, plus top three overall masters – male and female. A one-mile fun run for children ages 12 and under will start at 8 a.m., and the 5-mile will start at 8:30 a.m. This is a USATF certified course with professional timing and finish line management. The course is mostly flat but moderately challenging as it loops around the foot of Warrior Mountain with all right hand turns. There will be two water stops and plenty of food post race. On-line applications can be found at www.warriordrive5.com and www.carolinafoothillschamber.com. Deadline for T-shirts is 10 days before the event.
