A few pics taken yesterday on the course. Would have been fun running the mountain, but River Walk was and remains closed, and road conditions were unsafe. Looking forward to seeing everyone on the 22nd.

Due to the expected winter storm later this week, and the expectation of significant snow, we will postpone the race.

Naturally, we want to make sure people can get to the race in the event of snow storms. In addition, the Town of Hillsborough will highly likely close the riverwalk if conditions are unsafe. Without use of the Riverwalk, our race cannot be held.

NEW DATE CONFIRMED - SUNDAY FEB 22ND. UPDATED IN RUNSIGNUP.

Emails were sent to runners with options if the new date does not work for you.
