Summer is a coming in…and what better way for a body to celebrate than with the Summer Solstice 5K race held at the Cobb County Corps Property in Acworth on Saturday, June 20th?! The course is a flat grassy and dirt trail, with an occasional hay bale jump for fun! Rather than a typical summer road race, the organizers thought that runners would enjoy something a little different. You can run as an individual, or form a 5-person team which may be co-ed, all male, all female, one age group or multi-age group. The race will be scored in the typical cross country format, where runners receive points for their place and the lowest team score wins. In-store registration is available at all 4 BPRC locations and on Active.com.
May your body’s Best Miles Be Those Covered On Foot!
