We are very appreciative to the following sponsors who have helped make this race possible!
The annual race proceeds go to local cross country teams at Elizabethtown, John, Central, North Hardin Christian and North Hardin High Schools.

Last year, Bluegrass Cellular raised over $8,210 for these causes and we hope to raise even more in 2013!
Keep in mind that you are the only one you are competing against, and your goal is to do the best that you can do, avoid injuries, and have fun.
Weight lifting two to three times per week is another way to improve your 5K run. Not only will it strengthen the muscles, ligaments and tendons to help prevent injury, it will make the leg muscles less prone to fatigue during the event.
Flexibility is an important component of fitness, and exercise tends to increase the amount of flexibility in a joint.
Eating a simple meal of 200 to 400 calories about two to three hours before the race is important to have fuel for the event, but also have time to digest the food.
The post-exercise meal is critical to recovery and improves your ability to train consistently.
If you experience any sharp pain, weakness or light-headedness during exercise, pay attention. This is your body's signal that something is wrong.
To help avoid nervousness before the event, arrive with plenty of time so you aren't rushed, get a thorough warm-up, know the course, and dress for the weather.
